title: [Effects of gravitation plasmapheresis].
abstract: More than 400 gravitation plasmapheresis operations conducted in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) have been analyzed. Plasmapheresis was combined with thrombocytapheresis, erythrocyte oxygenation, plasma sorption and plasma filtration. Removed plasma was substituted for rheologically active solutions and albumin. Gravitation plasmapheresis was used in critical cases when alternative therapeutic methods had failed to provide a favourable outcome. Inclusion of gravitation plasmapheresis into the combined treatment of CHD patients was conductive to decreasing lethality in complicated forms of acute myocardial infarction attended by circulatory insufficiency, stage III-IV, from 82 to 33%. Hypoxia and acytosis are eliminated as a result of normalization of blood circulation and the system of blood aggregation regulation, the functions of the lungs and other internal organs were improved, that was manifested in the clinical course of CHD: pain symptoms disappear, stress tolerance increases, sensitivity to drug therapy rises, lethality decreases.
