Therapeutic plasma exchange: a paired comparison of Fresenius AS104 vs. COBE Spectra.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) may remove medications from the patient's plasma. Data is limited on the effect of TPE on unfractionated heparin (UFH). STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS:A retrospective review was performed of patients receiving TPE and continuous IV infusion UFH from 1/1/2008 to 6/30/2010. TPE wit...
