[The clinical aspects of discrete plasmapheresis in treating multiple organ failure in patients with the icterohemorrhagic form of leptospirosis].
Discrete-mode plasmapheresis using medium doses of separated plasma provides a detoxicating effect by eliminating of toxins, products of catabolism, biologically active substance, stimulation of gastrointestinal functions and cardiovascular system.
