Brief 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.
