Clinical Trial Summary

Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL)-apheresis refers to a procedure in which blood taken from a patient's vein is cleaned from pathogenic substances, e.g. cholesterol, outside the body and then given back to the patient. In the DALI (Direct Adsorption of Lipoproteins)-system whole blood is pumped over an adsorber containing beads that selectively bind LDL-cholesterol. The MONET (Membrane filtration Optimized Novel Extracorporeal Treatment)-system works with plasma which is cleaned by filtration. This study comprises the recording of safety and efficacy data from patients treated either with the DALI or MONET-system over a period of 2 years.


Clinical Trial Description

Data were recorded from patients suffering from familial hypercholesterolemia and treated by lipid apheresis using one of the two systems investigated for at least 3 months prior to inclusion in the study. Only those treatments were documented in which routine blood samples for laboratory analysis were taken, or in which adverse or serious adverse device effects occur. ;
