Abstract
The earliest attempts at direct modification of the blood, or what we would now call hemapheresis, were carried out experimentally in France in the early years of this century [1], as indeed was the first recorded therapeutic intervention of this sort in a human [2]. The word “plasmapheresis” was coined soon after in the USA to designate the separation of plasma from whole blood with return of only the red cells to an animal subject [3]. The firest recorded clinical application of plasmapheresis was for the treatment of a patient with chronic renal disease, and was recorded as a success [2]. Later attempts on a variety of such patients were considered unsuccessful [4], and interest in this type of procedure seems to have waned after the mid-1920s [5] until the development of mechanical blood cell separators in the early 1950s. It is the biochemical devices that are to be discussed today.
