Blood Purification (Plasmapheresis)
Modern people's diet is gradually becoming more refined. Most of the three meals are high in calories, fat, salt, and sugar. Coupled with factors such as high life pressure, irregular work and rest, and lack of exercise, cardiovascular disease has become one of the top ten causes of death in the country.
What is Blood Purification (Plasmapheresis)?
Plasmapheresis has been utilized within many different medical centers for different purpose. This treatment was created for body detoxification and rehabilitation through cleansing of the blood and has been found to aid in lessening symptoms like migraines, inflammation, joint pain, weight gain, etc., which also allows quicker recovery of the body and significant improvement of quality of life.
The blood is made up of cellular elements (red blood cells, white blood cells) and fluid (also known as plasma). Plasma contains water as a base and many different substances such as proteins, clotting factors, lipids particles (like cholesterol, triglyceride) and inflammatory toxins.
The blood purification process can separate the whole blood into blood cells and plasma, and then removes a certain part of plasma and selectively eliminate excess cholesterol, triglycerides and other pathogenic substances in the body. It is not only fast and effective, but also after the treatment is completed, all values in the blood will be significantly improved.
The basic premise of plasmapheresis is that removal of these substances will reduce further damage to the body, and in many cases, permits reversal of the pathogenic process.
Plasmapheresis Procedure
Plasmapheresis procedure is accomplished with an plasmapheresis machine that uses a centrifuge to separate plasma from blood cellular components using sterile disposable tubing set and needle. Specially trained medical staff operate the machine and monitor your condition throughout the procedure. The machine separates and removes about 250ml of plasma from the blood and replenishes it with iv nutrition drip.

How Plasmaparesis is done?
High TG Sample
In compare with 2 ways tubes (out and in) using membrane method (mTPE), our method with centrifugal machines (cTPE) has
-
Shorter treatment time (only 120mins) and higher plasma removal efficiency.
-
Decline in markers are comparable to mTPE.
