Features: This book is recommended by the National Artificial Liver and Blood Purification Research Collaboration Group as a textbook and reference guide for artificial liver and blood purification operation techniques. It first outlines the concept, classification, function, clinical application indications and contraindications of artificial liver, as well as the basic conditions for conducting artificial liver and related blood purification treatments. Subsequently, it provides detailed introductions to each artificial liver technique, including plasma exchange, hemoperfusion adsorption, hemodialysis, hemofiltration, molecular adsorbent recirculation system (MARS), continuous blood purification, bio-dialysis adsorption therapy system, bio-type and combined bio-type artificial liver, ascites reinfusion, colon purification, and colon medication. The methods, principles, operation steps, indications and contraindications, adverse reactions and management, and key nursing points for each technique are covered. To facilitate use, the authors also introduce commonly used vascular access techniques for blood purification, common anticoagulation methods for artificial liver extracorporeal circulation, and other related technologies to artificial liver, including liver transplantation, hepatocyte transplantation, hepatocyte culture, peritoneal dialysis, blood lipid purification, immunoadsorption, etc. Additionally, brief introductions to the research, management, and teaching of artificial liver and blood purification are provided. At the end of the book, an appendix is included with bilingual (Chinese-English) glossary of related terminology, related equipment and materials, relevant tests and reference values, commonly used drugs, and the National Viral Hepatitis Prevention and Control Program, further enriching the reference value of the book. This book is co-authored by over 20 renowned experts in the fields of artificial liver, blood purification, medical engineering, and nursing, and is characterized by its up-to-date content, rich data, and strong practicality. It is available for reference and use by technical personnel in related fields such as liver diseases, infectious diseases, hepatobiliary surgery, intensive care, artificial liver, blood purification, tissue and cell engineering, and more.
