Plasmapheresis in Hyperviscosity Syndrome
Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1985ABSTRACT Three patients with Waldenström's macroglobulinaemia developed circulatory complications due to increased plasma viscosity, i.e relative viscosity value above 4. Plasmapheresis was performed either in a Haemonetics 30 S cell separator, by plasma filtration through a CPS 10 TM filter or by a double‐double pack Fenwal® system.

Abstract. Manual plasmapheresis is done worldwide on both paid donors, and to a much smaller extent on volunteer donors in order to generate source plasma to be fractionated into albumin, clotting factor concentrates, and gamma globulin. Automated technology has now been developed utilizing both centrifugal, and membrane separation devices (Haemonetics

Plasmapheresis in nephrology: an update
Current Opinion in Nephrology & Hypertension, 2006In the past, recommendations for the use of plasmapheresis were based on findings reported from pilot studies or anecdotes. New results from several randomized controlled trials have changed the indications for the use of plasma exchange.A large randomized controlled study of patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody associated vasculitis ...

Plasmapheresis in the Dysproteinemias
Therapeutic Apheresis, 2002Abstract: The dysproteinemias consist of a broad range of serious disease states with the common thread of excessive production of an abnormal, or para‐protein. Various clinical syndromes may arise, either from the underlying disease process, the excess paraprotein, or both.

Plasmapheresis in a Patient With Scleromyxedema
Archives of Dermatology, 1987We describe a patient with progressive scleromyxedema who failed to respond to previously described treatment modalities. A trial of plasmapheresis was initiated, but after an initial promising response, his disease continued to progress. The skin involvement appeared to progress even more rapidly after the plasmapheresis was discontinued.

Plasmapheresis is the process by which plasma containing components causing or thought to cause disease is removed from the circulation, and the remaining blood components are returned with plasma or a harmless plasma substitute to the donor. It primarily removes protein-bound solutes or high-molecular-weight solutes such as circulating protein-bound ...

Volume Limitations of Plasmapheresis
Vox Sanguinis, 1977Abstract. The published specifications of the acceptable limits of the maximum plasma volume to be ‘harvested’ by plasmapheresis from one individual per year vary from 10–15 liters in Europe to 50–60 liters in the United States. To answer the question which of these widely diverging precepts is appropriate, the effects of plasmapheresis on serum ...

Plasmapheresis‐Related Hypotension
Artificial Organs, 2000Abstract: Hypotension is an uncommon complication of procedures involving extracorporeal circulation, including plasmapheresis. From November 1993 to March 1999, we treated 139 patients who underwent a total of 1,137 sessions of double filtration plasmapheresis (DFP).

Plasmapheresis Therapy of Pemphigus
Archives of Dermatology, 1988Systemic corticosteroids are the cornerstone of pemphigus therapy. Their use has transformed an almost invariably fatal illness into one whose mortality is less than 10%, probably closer to 5%. 1 However, the serious side effects associated with the prolonged and high doses of corticosteroids required to treat pemphigus have prompted a search for ...
