Therapeutic Plasmapheresis and Plasma Exchange

CRC Critical Reviews in Clinical Laboratory Sciences, 1986
Plasma exchange is a process in which large volumes of plasma, usually equivalent to one plasma volume, are exchanged with donor plasma or a plasma substitute. This permits the removal of antibody, immune complexes, inflammatory mediators, paraproteins, drugs, toxins, and other plasma constituents.

Complications of therapeutic plasma exchange

Clinical & Laboratory Haematology, 1985
We reviewed complications associated with 1211 therapeutic plasma exchanges done on 132 patients. Complications were encountered during 148 (12%) procedures and involved 64 (48.5%) patients. Most of the complications were minor in nature but in 17 (12.9% of patients) cases the patient developed serious or potentially serious complications.

Study of Centrifugal Therapeutic Plasma Exchange and Membrane Therapeutic Plasma Exchange; A Comparative Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) involves removing the patient's plasma and replacing it with allogeneic plasma, colloid, or crystalloid. TPE is most commonly performed using either centrifugation devices or plasma filtration across high‐permeability membranes.
