Transfusion triggers

Surgery, 2003
The decision to transfuse a patient is not always clear and straightforward, particularly because no single number, neither extraction ratio nor hemoglobin level, can serve as an absolute indicator of transfusion need.

TRANSFUSION RISKS

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1990
Hepatitis remains the most serious transfusion risk, in terms of incidence and severity. Transfusion-associated AIDS, hemolytic reactions, TRALI, and anaphylaxis are severe problems that occur relatively rarely, while febrile reactions and mild allergic reactions are common but not serious. The key to avoiding all these complications is autotransfusion
