Patients with LAA or APLS needed to assist in research

Do you have, or do you know someone who has APLS/Antiphospholipid Syndrome?  We are currently looking for participants who have APLS to participate in a plasma donation program to help others.  Your plasma is need for the research and diagnostic communities to further research the disease as well as to manufacture the positive controls for the very test kit(s) that we used in your diagnosis.

Without antibody rich plasma these very kits run a risk of going on back order and not be available when healthcare professionals need them to make a timely diagnosis of other patients.  Plasma is a crucial component in the test kits to make the diagnosis possible of other patients.  Plasmapheresis is the process of separating the plasma (the yellowish colored liquid) from the red blood cells which house the antibodies for your diagnosis.  During the process your red cells are returned to you allowing you to not only donate more frequently but also not running the risk of causing temporary anemia.  Whole blood donors are only allowed to donate every 56 days (8 weeks) as it takes this long for your body to replace the blood cells that were donated, however with plasma you get these cells back allowing you to donate plasma twice within a 7 day period.

Participants who qualify can earn up to $500 per donation, or up to $1000 per week simply by donating plasma and helping others.  If we don’t have a center near you we pay all travel related expenses to get you to/from the nearest center and you still earn your compensation for the donation.

What we look at to qualify you is your anti Cardiolipin antibodies  which is called your “titer”.  These levels have an IgG and IgA and an IgM and on one or more the values should show 300 iu/ml or > 300iu/ml on your lab results.
