This is similar to what a blood donor experiences. Transplant patients may need to have multiple plasmapheresis sessions before and after surgery to remove antibodies. Article Navigation.

Removal of toxins or overdosed drugs that are small molecules e. This is also a form of haemodialysis but may only need to be performed once. This can be beneficial in patients with immune-mediated disease or in those with toxins or overdosed drugs that are large molecules or highly protein bound, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs.

This is termed therapeutic plasma exchange or plasmapheresis — it involves removal of larger molecules, proteins including immunoglobulins, cytokines and fluid, while being replaced with donor plasma. Each of these three scenarios are slightly different to dialysis typically offered to human patients with chronic kidney disease CKD. Dialysis for CKD has been performed for dogs and cats in other countries but is a life-long treatment which we are not currently able to offer at the RVC.
