By GlobalDataPatients who depend on plasma protein therapies often require regular infusions or injections throughout their lives.
Source Plasma is collected only through plasmapheresis, which is an automated process in which plasma is taken from donated blood and the remaining components, primarily red cells and platelets, are returned to the donor.
Source Plasma is used by pharmaceutical companies to manufacture plasma-based therapies, such as albumin and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG).
