Double Filtration Plasmapheresis (DFPP) Circuit Setup | DFPP Before Kidney Transplant

Dr. Garima Aggarwal, Consultant Nephrologist & Renal Transplant Specialist at Manipal Hospitals Bengaluru, explains the complete setup and working of a Double Filtration Plasmapheresis (DFPP) circuit, used in desensitization protocols for ABO- or HLA-incompatible kidney transplants. The video demonstrates: • All components of the DFPP circuit — vascular access, blood and plasma lines, plasma separator, plasma fractionator, and monitoring units • How to make the connections correctly step-by-step • Role of DFPP in antibody removal prior to kidney transplantation • Tips for nursing and technical staff during DFPP sessions DFPP is an advanced plasma therapy that selectively removes antibodies while retaining albumin and smaller plasma proteins, improving safety and tolerance compared to conventional plasma exchange. 👉 Watch till the end for practical insights into circuit handling #DFPP #KidneyTransplant #Plasmapheresis #Desensitization #NephrologyEducation #ManipalHospitals #DrGarimaAggarwal DFPP setup double filtration plasmapheresis plasmapheresis in kidney transplant DFPP desensitization ABO incompatible kidney transplant HLA incompatible kidney transplant how to set up DFPP circuit plasmapheresis nursing training nephrology procedure demonstration kidney transplant preparation plasma separator plasma fractionator DFPP vs plasma exchange
