Here are some simple guidelines that will help you identify the best apheresis donation for your blood type.
1. Platelets (O+, A+, B+): Platelets are essential from donors with these blood types and are often used to help cancer patients. They only last for 5 days! The process takes about 2 hours.
2. Plasma (AB+, AB-): AB types are the universal donors for plasma, which is often used to treat burn victims and others with serious trauma injuries. The process takes about 1 and a half hours. Only AB+, AB- can donate plasma. Please call 1-800-398-7888 to schedule an appointment for plasma.
