The study explores Scientometric Analysis on Convalescent Plasma Research Output: A Global Perspective from 2011 – 2022, indexed in the PubMed database. “Convalescent Plasma” is a search term in the all field tag that fetches 2266 records and the study period. The study examined the maximum number of records (965) published in 2021 and the least in 2011 (7). The average exponential growth rate is 0.87 during the period of study on Convalescent Plasma research. It is analysed that the Cancer Medicine Journal is placed in th.e first position with 82 records. Massimo Franchini has contributed 74 records and is in first position in this research. This is a strong positive correlation, which means that high X variable scores go with high Y variable scores (and vice versa) in Convalescent Plasma research output; the value R is 0.9338. The USA was the most productive country in Convalescent Plasma Research; mean, median, mode and range values are identified in year-wise publications of this research study.
