Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to clarify the clinical application of centrifugal-membrane hybrid plasmapheresis (CMHP) in the treatment of hyperlipidemia.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 48 patients who were diagnosed with hyperlipidemia and had received CMHP treatment. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were monitored, and adverse reactions to the treatment were observed.
Results: Forty-eight patients with hyperlipidemia received CMHP over 59 sessions. The average age of the 48 patients with hyperlipidemia, including 32 males (66.67%) and 16 females (33.33%), was 44.23 ± 12.02 years. Twenty-nine outpatients (60.42%) and 19 inpatients (39.58%) were included. Hypertriglyceridemia was diagnosed in 16 cases (33.33%), mixed hyperlipidemia in 31 cases (64.58%), and hypercholesterolemia in one case (2.08%). The pretreatment blood lipid concentrations were significantly different after the 59 CMHP treatments (p < .001). The concentrations of TC, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C decreased significantly after the treatment, and the median ratios of reduction were 67.06% (range: 58.97%-71.87%), 63.33% (range: 55.20%-74.86%), 45.87% (range: 35.86%-52.95%), and 66.09% (range: 44.37%-73.94%), respectively. Three adverse reactions (5.08%) were recorded. No differences were detected in therapeutic parameters, effects, or adverse reactions between the two blood cell separators, there was no difference in Lipoprotein apheresis efficacy.
Conclusion: This preliminary study demonstrated the clinical application of CMHP in patients in the treatment of hyperlipidemia. However, further studies are needed applying CMHP with hyperlipidemia.
