What is Plasma?
Plasma is the liquid portion of your blood that makes up about 55% of your total blood volume.
Plasma is a clear, straw-colored liquid that contains water, salts, enzymes, antibodies, and other proteins. It plays a crucial role in maintaining blood pressure, supplying critical proteins for blood clotting and immunity, and carrying electrolytes to muscles.
Plasma is essential for treating patients with serious medical conditions including trauma, burns, shock, severe liver disease, and multiple clotting factor deficiencies.
