A clinical trial of removal of bilirubin in blood by Evaflux-2A.

ABSTRACT

We performed both free and albumin-bound bilirubin removal therapy using the Evaflux-2A and evaluated its clinical effects. The removal rates of total bilirubin in the first and second sessions were 31.4%, and 31.0%, respectively. Our clinical data suggested that plasma exchange using Evaflux-2A and an albumin-added electrolyte solution as the substitute fluid was useful in the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia.
