The Design of Large‐Scale Plasma Donation Trials

Statistics in Medicine, Volume 44, Issue 15-17, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Devices for extracting blood from donors require rigorous evaluation for the safety of donors. Complications arise from the fact that outcomes on successive donations from the same donor are not independent, adverse event rates are extremely rare, and there is substantial heterogeneity in the propensity for donors to donate over time.
