Transfusion Reaction Reporting

Transfusion reaction reporting involves documenting and communicating any adverse or unexpected responses a person has after receiving a blood transfusion. These reactions can range from mild allergic symptoms to more severe issues like fever, chills, or breathing difficulties. Healthcare providers monitor patients closely during and after transfusions to identify these reactions and report them to ensure proper care and to help prevent future problems. Accurate reporting helps maintain blood safety standards, improve transfusion practices, and protect patient health.
