- 2. Therapeutic plasmaexchange (TPE, plasmapheresis) is an extracorporeal treatment that can be performed by centrifugation or filtration and is designed for the removal of plasma along with pathogenic substances, such as antibodies, immune complexes, or large molecular weight substances from the plasma. Therapeutic plasma exchange

- 4. In TPE,using centrifugation, whole blood is pumped into a rapidly rotating separation chamber and component separate into layers based upon their density, plasma layer is removed and discarded and the remaining cellular elements are mixed with a replacement fluid and returned to the patient. In TPE using membrane filtration, secondary membrane plasma fractionation can selectively remove undesired macromolecules, which then allows for return of the processed plasma to the patient instead of donor plasma or albumin.

Advantages Disadvantages Membrane apheresis Fastand efficient plasmapheresis No citrate requirements Can be adapted for cascade filtration Removal of substances limited by sieving coefficient of membrane Unable to perform cytapheresis Requires high blood flows, central venous access Requires heparin anticoagulation, limiting use in bleeding disorders Centrifugal devices Capable of performing cytapheresis No heparin requirement More efficient removal of all plasma components Expensive Requires citrate anticoagulation Loss of platelets

- 11. The MCS+fills the disposable centrifuge bowl with anticoagulated whole blood. Sterile air is displaced from the bowl into the air bag. During the filling bowl phase, substitution fluid flows into the substitution fluid bag on the weigher. The bowl will fill up and a cellular separation will occur. The plasma begins to overflow from the bowl into the waste. How machine works..

Total PlasmaVolume (TPV) to be removed is calculated by obtaining the total blood volume (TBV) multiplied by (100% - Hct%) Total blood volume is between 5.5-7.5% of body mass for most adults and may be estimated as 70ml/kg for males and 65 ml/kg for female . Because TBV increase with muscle mass. Example: Patient Wt:70 kg and Patient Hct40% TBV: 70 kg x 70ml/kg = 4900ml TPV: 4900 ml x (100% -40%) = 2940 ml Plasma volume calculation

- 23. Apheresis procedurerequire anticoagulation,& citrate has become the anticoagulant of choice. It anticoagulates by chelating calcium ion and blocking calcium dependent platelet activation and clotting factor activation. 47% of plasma calcium is free and, it is this free (ionized)calcium fraction that participate in coagulation reaction and chelated by endogenous citrate.

Sever case of hypocalcemia may cause continuous muscle contraction if not corrected tetany, laryngospasm grand mal seizures. Chvostek`s & Trousseau`s sign may be positive. Infusion of Ca to the return line or with replacement fluid may reduce incidence of citrate toxicity.

One plasmavolume exchange: IgG drops to 34% of baseline IgA drops to 39% of baseline IgM drops to 31% of baseline Ranges from 3 days to 5 weeks to full recovery Most non immunoglobulin proteins recover to nearly 100% of baseline within 48 to 72 hours after TPE. Administration of immunosuppressive drugs may effect the contribution of synthesis to the recovery of immunoglobulin after TPE. Normal Immunoglobulins

Prothrombin time rise 30% Activated partial thromboplastin time rise 100% Fibrinogen levels may decrease 25% Plate count reduce resulting from adherence to the surfaces of the apheresis circuit are usually modest & level quickly return to base line. These changes revert toward normal within several hours except which recovered to baseline levels after 2 to 3 days. Coagulation status

Apheresis only modest decrease in circulating blood cell counts, which are not associated with any immediate toxicity. Small amount of red lost in apheresis circuit which is well tolerated except anemic patient meager production capacity who is undergoing multiple procedures. Although generally well tolerated, large volume leukapheresis for stem cell collections in often result decline in hematocrit and platelet count. Cellular loss
- 33. Removal ofparaproteins (ie myeloma) is 50% of predicted Some cases can have greater removal than predicted (see last 2 reasons) Due to: Increase in plasma volume (up to 1.5x greater, especially if IgG >40g/L) Some myeloma patients have higher proportion of IgG in intravascular space (56-85%) As remove paraprotein in TPE, plasma volume progressively decreases Paraproteins
- 34. An early studyof 29 patients with multiple myeloma and acute kidney injury included 24 patients on dialysis and an additional 5 with creatinine concentrations higher than 5 mg/dL. The patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups: 15 patients received plasmapheresis plus standard therapy, and 14 patients received standard therapy alone. Of the 15 patients who received plasmapheresis, 13 patients recovered renal function (creatinine concentration < 2.5 mg/dL), in contrast to only 2 of the 14 receiving standard therapy. 51 However, in a study of 21 patients who were randomly assigned to receive either plasmapheresis plus chemotherapy or chemotherapy alone, Johnson and colleagues 52 reported no difference in patient survival or in recovery of kidney function. The mortality rate at 6 months was 20% in each group, which increased to 60% to 80% at 12 months. In the largest study to date, 97 patients with multiple myeloma and acute kidney injury were randomly assigned to receive either conventional therapy alone or conventional therapy plus five to seven plasma exchanges (5% human serum albumin) of 50 mL per kilogram of body weight for 10 days. The primary endpoint (death, dialysis, or glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min) occurred in 33 (56.9%) of 58 patients who received plasmapheresis and in 27 (69.2%) of 39 control subjects. 53
