Did you know that plasma can’t be made in a lab? Donated plasma from healthy donors is used to create lifesaving treatments for people living with PI to help their immune systems stay healthy and strong!
Every year it takes over 130 plasma donations to treat just one patient living with PI. Plasma donation is performed by trained nurses and takes, on average, less than an hour to complete the procedure. If you live in the U.S., you’ll even receive compensation for your donation!
For people living with a PI, plasma may be the difference between life and death. Want to learn more about the importance of plasma donation? Read our interview with Dr. Pere Soler- Palacín, Director of the Jeffrey Modell Diagnostic and Research Center in Barcelona, Spain.
