title: [The potentials of plasmapheresis on membranes in the practical delivery of emergency medical care].
abstract: The potentialities of extracorporeal methods of treatment of patients with an emergency pathology have become considerably wider after the appearance of the domestic membrane plasma separator "PFM-800" (joint-stock company "Optics", St. Petersburg, Russia). This separator "PFM-800" was used in 23 curative plasmaphereses performed in 16 patients with severe degrees of intoxication of different origin. The devices were shown to be effective and safe in use, have small primary volume of filling (1 plasma filter--20 ml, 2--40 ml). With blood flow rate of about 65 ml/min the plasma outflow equals 32% of the blood flow (19 ml/min). Best results are achieved when two devices are simultaneously included in parallel in the blood flow. The investigated plasma separators on membranes can be widely used in treatment of the intoxication syndrome in patients with different diseases including those in critical states.
