Core Tip Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) are essential for managing acute liver failure (ALF) and acute-on-chronic liver failure. High-volume TPE excels in ALF for rapid clearance of protein-bound toxins, while standard-volume TPE is better suited for acute-on-chronic liver failure’s hemodynamically fragile patients. CRRT addresses renal failure and ammonia spikes, particularly in ALF’s encephalopathy. Sequential TPE-CRRT is safer and more feasible, while combined approaches are reserved for severe, rapidly deteriorating cases. Emerging biomarkers (e.g., interleukin-6, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin) hold promise for guiding therapy, but access disparities and non-standardized protocols necessitate global standardization and innovative solutions to enhance survival. This review synthesizes the optimal requirement of TPE and CRRT.
