Plasmapheresis
Conventional medicine
⚠This is not folk medicine. This page describes a NON-traditional method (complementary/alternative or conventional medicine), outside FolkKB's folk/herbal focus. It is informational only — not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Evidence and safety vary widely; consult a qualified professional.
Plasmapheresis is the removal, treatment, and return or exchange of blood plasma or components thereof from and to the blood circulation. It is thus an extracorporeal therapy, a medical procedure performed outside the body.
