Urgent therapeutic plasma exchange
Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is a well-established therapeutic procedure commonly used in many disorders of autoimmune etiology. The beneficial effects of TPE occur through the removal of pathognomonic inflammatory mediators; including autoantibodies, complement components, and cytokines. The use of TPE in the emergency setting is limited to a few
