[Plasma- and cytapheresis equipment for extracorporeal regulation of the aggregative status of the blood in diseases of the cardiovascular system].

: The article gives a generalized experience of using the home equipment for gravitational plasma- and cytapheresis for correcting the disturbances of the aggregate state of the blood in acute myocardial infarction, angina pectoris and rheumatic fever. The possibility of a wide-scale use of these devices in the intensive therapy and resuscitation departments has been shown. The basic tenets of the extracorporeal theory of regulating the aggregate state of blood have been formulated. A possibility of the combined use of blood fractionaters with other equipment for changing biochemical, biophysical and cytologic properties of blood has been shown.
