Abstract
Charcoal haemoperfusion will remove many toxins, and appears to be an
attractively simple technique for doctors experienced in haemofiltrati
on. The pharmacokinetics of most compounds and the overriding importan
ce of supportive care do, however, relegate the technique to one of mi
nor importance.
