Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: Failure to perform plasmapheresis which is a plasma extraction technique that allows for the removal of immunoglobulins and pro-inflammatory factors, such as cryoglobulins and lipoproteins, which are the cause of many diseases. The amount and frequency of plasma required in this situation are partly optional. extracted plasma is replaced with albumin and saline and It is estimated that 2 liters of plasma replacement will remove 80% of circulating antibodies, which will reduce acetylcholine antibody levels within 3-5 days.
