简要总结
The trial will be conducted in the Department of Transfusion Medicine in collaboration with Dept. of Nephrology of the Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER), Chandigarh. A convenient sample size of twenty-four patients (twelve (12) in each group) who would fulfill the inclusion criteria to be enrolled in the study after obtaining written informed consent from the study participants, the patients will be randomized into either of the two study arms.
Group I: Patient who undergo Therapeutic plasma exchange by centrifugal technique (cTPE) after informed consent
Group II: Patient who undergo Therapeutic plasma exchange by membranous technique (mTPE) after informed consent
Baseline investigations and clinical details of the patients will be recorded and patients counselled by the clinician for the available therapies and randomly allocated into cTPE or mTPE group for assessing the efficacy of plasma removal by therapeutic plasma exchange as well cost involved in the procedures being done.
Primary and Secondary outcomes would be studied in the study participants and results evaluated when available.
