AB  - Plasma  and  its  derivatives  are  important  products  in  medical  therapy.  Plasma  is  the  soluble  protein-containing  solution  of  blood  that  contains  albumin,  immunoglobulins,  and  the  clotting  factors  and,  thus,  can  be  used  for  therapeutic  purposes  in  which  there  are  deficiencies  of  those  plasma  proteins,  as  listed  in  Table  94–1.  Convalescent  plasma  is  a  particular  rich  source  of  protective  antibodies  used  in  passive  immunity  for  dangerous  infectious  diseases  and  from  which  concentrates  of  hyperimmune  gamma  globulins  can  be  made.  This  chapter  focuses  on  the  use  of  plasma  and  its  derivatives  for  hematologic  disorders,  principally  bleeding  disorders  and  hematologic  diseases  responding  to  plasma  exchange  therapy.
