☘️ Blood plasma is a yellowish liquid component of blood that holds the blood cells of whole blood in suspension. It is the liquid part of the blood that carries cells and proteins throughout the body. It makes up about 55% of the body's total blood volume. It is the intravascular fluid part of extracellular fluid.

☘️ Plasma is commonly given to trauma, burn and shock patients, as well as people with severe liver disease or multiple clotting factor deficiencies. It helps boost the patient's blood volume, which can prevent shock, and helps with blood clotting.

✨ Blood is composed of plasma and different kinds of cells : red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and thromobocytes (platelets). The density of blood (1060 kg/m3) is very close to that of pure water (1000 kg/m3).
