Nursing the transfusion patient

Learn about procedures, steps, risks and requirements for safely and effectively providing a blood product transfusion to canine and feline patients. Transfusion therapy in veterinary practice has become increasingly more common and is continually developing. Adverse reactions to blood products can be life threatening, and so the task of providing them can seem daunting. However, transfusion patients can be some of the most rewarding cases for nurses to care for. This lecture aims to provide nurses with the tools to confidently manage transfusion patients.
