[Effectiveness of plasmapheresis on the PF-0.5 blood separator in patients with paraproteinemic hemoblastoses].
Plasmapheresis on a Soviet-made PF-0.5 blood cell separator was performed in 20 PPH patients (altogether 33 sessions of plasmapheresis). 1600 to 3300 ml of plasma were removed during one session. Rheopolyglucin was mainly used as plasma-substituting liquid. The procedure was well tolerated by all the patients. After plasmapheresis biochemical indices were within normal. In multiple myeloma paraprotein was decreased by 42%. Waldenström's macroglobulinemia by 47%. Plasma viscosity was decreased 1.2- and 2-fold, respectively. The investigations showed a high efficacy and reliability of plasmapheresis with the help of the Soviet-made PF-0.5.
