What is Plasma

The Significance of Life-Saving Plasma

Plasma is the liquid part of your blood, making up about 55% of it. Think of it as the fluid that carries your blood cells, transporting them throughout your body. Blood plasma plays several important roles like transporting nutrients, hormones, and proteins to the parts of the body that need them.

When you donate plasma, you’re doing something amazing! Plasma donations are used to create medications for people with rare, chronic conditions. This includes hemophilia, immune system disorders, and other serious conditions. Your plasma donation can make a huge difference in their lives.

Donated plasma is also essential in treating patients with clotting disorders and in emergency situations, such as severe trauma. It supports patients undergoing organ transplants or major surgery, helping manage bleeding and providing essential proteins for recovery.

By donating plasma, you’re providing a lifeline for patients in critical need. It’s a generous act that has a profound impact on the health and well-being of others. Thank you for considering this life-saving act!
