Description

This book delves into the emerging therapeutic approach of Convalescent Plasma (CP) therapy in the treatment of Covid-19. With the pandemic still ravaging the world, CP has gained significant attention for its potential to treat critically ill patients by providing passive immunity. The book covers the historical context, mechanism of action, and successful applications of CP in previous pandemics like SARS, MERS, and H1N1. It also explores the process of selecting suitable donors, safety protocols, and recent findings regarding its effectiveness in combating Covid-19, offering valuable insights for healthcare professionals and researchers alike.

Abstract

Convalescent Plasma (CP) therapy has been used for over a century to treat infectious diseases, including SARS, MERS, and H1N1. In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, this book explores the use of CP as a therapeutic strategy for critically ill patients. By transfusing plasma rich in antibodies from recovered individuals, CP boosts the immune response and aids in the recovery process. The book highlights the methodology, donor selection criteria, and clinical outcomes, alongside evidence from early studies showing promising results in Covid-19 treatment. It serves as a comprehensive guide for medical professionals exploring this adaptive immunotherapy.
