Cognitive Biases in Early Trauma Transfusions: Lessons From Three Rare Cases of Acute Hemolytic Reaction

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Massive transfusion protocols are essential in trauma resuscitation but may inadvertently increase the risk of acute hemolytic transfusion reactions (AHTRs), which are typically caused by ABO incompatibility. Recognition is difficult because signs of hemolysis can mimic trauma‐related hemorrhage or coagulopathy.
