Plasma Donors
Plasma donors are individuals who voluntarily give their blood plasma, a yellowish fluid that makes up about 55% of blood. Plasma contains essential proteins, electrolytes, and antibodies, making it crucial for various medical treatments. Donating plasma is a safe process, typically taking about 1 to 2 hours, and donors can do it every few weeks.
Plasma is used in therapies for conditions like hemophilia, immune deficiencies, and severe burns. The collected plasma can be processed into life-saving products, such as immunoglobulins and clotting factors. Plasma donation plays a vital role in supporting patients who rely on these treatments.
