    Abstract:
    The transfusion of blood products has become increasingly safe over the last few years, but the procedure is not without risk. One rare, but serious, complication is sepsis related to the transfusion of blood contaminated with bacteria. This article discusses the risk, treatment, and prevention of this potential complication of transfusions.
