Abstract

We report the first experiences with HELP apheresis as an emergency treatment for acute cardiovascular syndromes; two patients who were not eligible for lysis therapy and catheter intervention were treated with HELP apheresis instead. Both patients had a most severe, generalized atherosclerosis and reached the hospital too late for conventional measures. In both cases, the use of the apheresis dramatically improved the clinical situation to such an extent that the possibilities of this apheresis system urge further investigation.
