Specialized hollow fiber membranes for in-vivo plasmapheresis and ultrafiltration

   
   

An in-vivo plasmapheresis and/or in-vivo ultrafiltration membrane comprises a plurality of elongated hollow fibers each fiber having an interior lumen extending along the fiber length, the fiber wall having a plurality of zones between the inner and outer wall surfaces, each of the zones having a mass density different than the mass density of an adjacent zone. The fiber wall is characterized by having a lower mass density zone at the inner wall surface and a higher mass density zone at the outer wall surface.
