    The addition to charcoal treated normal and charcoal treated uremic plasma of four metabolites which accumulate during uremia--uric acid, beta -phenylpyruvic acid, guanidinosuccinic acid, and p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid--failed to produce a warfarin binding defect. Charcoal treatment corrected the warfarin binding defect in uremic plasma, however it diminished the extent of warfarin binding to normal plasma. These observations rule out the possibility that uric acid, beta -phenylpyruvic acid, guanidinosuccinic acid, or p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid contribute to the warfarin binding defect in uremia, and suggest that free fatty acids have no role in the warfarin binding defect.

    Guest Editor's Introduction: Activated charcoal has a microporous structure and a large surface area that nonspecifically adsorbs the substances in the molecular weight range of 100–5,000, including hepatoxins, uremic toxins and drugs. The success of the first clinical trial for the treatment of chronic renal failure with an activated charcoal column was carried out by Yatidis in 1964, but the clinical application for the charcoal column has not been possible. This is because the charcoal presented major problems such as the release of microparticles and platelet activation. Chang solved these problems by developing the activated charcoal which was microcapsulated by biocompatible materials. Since then, many kinds of activated charcoal columns have been commercialized for blood purification use and are still widely utilized. This paper which describes the first clinical use of microcapsulated charcoal was printed in Trans Am Soc Artif Intern Organs, vol 16, page 141–148 (1970) and is reprinted here with permission.

    The Skeggs-Leonards artificial kidney and related methods were applied by the author in about thirty instances in patients with various kinds of renal disease. The treatment brought about clinical improvement of varying degree and appeared to be life-saving in four of five patients with acute renal failure. Treatment with the artificial kidney is indicated for patients with acute renal failure who develop clinical signs of uremia. The artificial kidney should be applied before the patient's condition has become irreversible. Removal of edema fluid is possible with modern artificial kidney equipment and appears to extend the therapeutic possibilities of the procedure. The artificial kidney may be of help in barbiturate and other intoxications. It affords temporary palliation in certain patients with chronic uremia; it may be used to overcome acute exacerbations of chronic renal disease; it may make it possible to operate on uremic patients who otherwise could not withstand operation.
