Therapeutic apheresis treatments and diagnostic monitoring methods are
described, specifically relating to the depletion and/or removal of a
broad bandwidth of certain rheologically active elements from the blood
of a patient followed by return of the blood so treated to the patient,
and to methods or procedures of apheresis treatment, especially
biophysiologic blood filtering treatments and computer medicated delivery
methods configured to provide such apheresis treatments to patients with
certain chronic, age-related, degenerative, atherogenic, thrombotic or
inflammatory diseases; especially those associated with RAM
accumulation-deposition causing disturbances of blood rheology or
microcirculatory impairment.
