Course overview

A blood transfusion is a common medical procedure that is required when an individual experiences excessive bleeding due to an injury or during surgery. It is also given when the body cannot make blood properly on its own. When this occurs, donated blood is transfused to the individual, as their own blood level is insufficiently low to carry oxygen around the body. This life-saving procedure, although safe, has multiple complications that should be considered by practitioners. This course will overview the different blood components, transfusion types, and the role of healthcare providers during the transfusion process.
