Plasma in Shimoga — FAQs

FFP replaces clotting factors in patients with liver disease, those on warfarin who need rapid reversal, massive transfusion protocols for trauma, and DIC. It's also crucial for treating burns and certain inherited clotting disorders.
Plasma can be donated through whole-blood donation (separated at the blood bank) or directly via plasmapheresis at an equipped centre. Plasmapheresis donors can give every 14 days.
Convalescent plasma programmes from COVID-19 have largely been phased out as treatments evolved. Some centres in Shimoga may still collect for research or specific indications — check with the blood bank directly.
Government blood banks charge a regulated processing fee of approximately ₹400 per FFP unit. Private centres charge more. The fee is often waived or reduced for thalassaemia, BPL, and other exempt categories.
Shimoga has 11 registered blood banks, blood centres, and blood storage centres as per the eRaktKosh portal of Government of India. The list includes both government and private facilities.
Most government blood banks in Shimoga operate round-the-clock for emergencies. Private centres may have different hours. Always call ahead to confirm availability and operating hours.
Use the live availability table on this page. Pick a blood group and a component (whole blood, PRBC, platelets, or plasma). The grid shows units currently reported by each blood bank in Shimoga.
