Effect on haemostasis of different replacement fluids during therapeutic plasma exchange-A comparative multicentre observational study.

Thrombin generation and fibrinogen discriminated better the effect of different TPE fluids on haemostasis and should be considered as potential markers to evaluate the immediate haemostatic effect of TPE procedures. The use of NS as a TPE replacement fluid had a distinctive impact on thrombin generation and fibrinogen responses compared to other non-FFP fluids.
