Convalescent plasma used to treat Covid-19 patients in Oman

Muscat: The Ministry of Health represented by the Central Blood Bank and the Royal hospital performed successfully a procedure of convalescent plasma extraction and transfusion from people who have recovered from COVID-19.
Many recovered patients donated their blood plasma according to the global blood banks' standards and controls.
Recovered donors were scrutinised in the MOH's Central Blood Bank laboratories to take their plasma in order to be injected into the critically ill patients admitted in the Royal Hospital.
The clinical vital sings of patients are closely monitored to measure the effectiveness of this therapy.
