Use of immunoglobulin <scp>G</scp> homeostatic set point and recovery time in plasmapheresis donor safety monitoring: A retrospective observational cohort study
Plasmapheresis is safe and sustainable for almost every donor, at the 2-weekly frequency allowed in Australia. The donors most likely to experience unacceptably low IgG are those with very low recruitment IgG levels. These donors could be recommended 12-week intervals between donations or other donation types.
