Therapeutic plasma exchange: Experience in a third level hospital, 2013-2016, Lima (Peru).

This is the first report of TPE performed in the Peruvian population. The use of an institutional apheresis protocol was beneficial to improve registries in our service and our professional health attention. This study reports a low rate of complications, suggesting that TPE is safe. There is a need to create a multicenter Peruvian apheresis registry to assess the benefits and risks of TPE in Peru.
