Plasmapheresis & Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)
What is Plasmapheresis & CRRT?
Plasmapheresis and Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) are advanced blood purification treatments used in critically ill patients. These therapies help remove harmful substances, toxins, antibodies, or excess fluids from the bloodstream when the body’s natural organs are unable to function adequately.
Plasmapheresis involves separating and removing the plasma portion of the blood, which may contain disease-causing antibodies or abnormal proteins. It is commonly used in autoimmune disorders, certain neurological conditions, and severe inflammatory diseases. CRRT is a specialized dialysis technique performed continuously in intensive care settings to support patients with acute kidney failure or severe fluid imbalance.
Both procedures are performed under close medical supervision and are commonly used in critical care units to stabilize patients with life-threatening conditions.
Procedure Overview
Several Hours per Session (CRRT Continuous 24 Hours)
Not Required (Sedation if ICU Patient)
ICU-Based Treatment
As Clinically Indicated
$1,000 – $5,000 per Session*
*Cost varies depending on treatment duration, consumables used, ICU stay, hospital category, and patient condition.
Step-by-step process
How is Plasmapheresis & CRRT Performed?
The procedure is conducted in a specialized intensive care or nephrology unit with advanced monitoring systems.
Vascular Access Establishment
A central venous catheter is placed for blood access.
Connection to Treatment Machine
Blood is circulated through a specialized purification machine.
Separation or Filtration Process
Plasma is separated and replaced, or blood is filtered continuously.
Replacement Fluid Administration
Fresh plasma, albumin, or balanced solutions are administered as needed.
Continuous Monitoring
Vital signs and electrolyte levels are closely observed.
Post-Treatment Assessment
Clinical response and laboratory parameters are reviewed.
This structured approach ensures controlled removal of harmful substances while maintaining stability.

I was initially concerned about the cost of cardiac treatment in my home country. Through Healing with India, I received a transparent cost estimate and comprehensive package that was significantly more affordable without compromising on quality. The entire process was clearly explained, and there were no unexpected expenses. It truly made advanced treatment accessible to me.
From the moment I arrived in India until my departure, the Healing with India team ensured everything was well coordinated. Airport pickup, hospital appointments, documentation, and follow-up schedules were managed seamlessly. I felt supported at every stage of my medical journey.
What stood out most was the level of care and attention I received. The medical team took time to explain my condition and treatment plan in detail. The Healing with India coordinators were always available to answer my questions and made sure I was comfortable throughout my stay.
The accommodation arranged for me and my family was comfortable and conveniently located near the hospital. The team assisted with local transportation, dietary needs, and language support. It made a stressful situation much easier for both me and my family.
Healing with India went beyond simply arranging treatment. They ensured my medical reports were reviewed before travel, coordinated with specialists for a second opinion, and even assisted with post-procedure follow-up once I returned home. Their commitment to quality and patient well-being was evident at every step.
