By using a non-invasive methodology of vascular diagnosis, ECG-triggered strain-gauge plethysmography, 5 patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) (3 homozygous, 2 heterozygous) were evaluated before and during the 1st and 2nd week after plasma exchange (PE). In order to obtain data on the responsiveness to vasodilating stimuli in FH patients undergoing PE, reactive hyperemia test and peak flow determination were also performed. Resting arterial flow over the calf was found to be significantly enhanced after PE. Reactive hyperemia test demonstrated persistent improvement of peak flow following exchange. This study demonstrates useful hemodynamic effects of PE in patients with FH.
