  • Title: Canine blood transfusions.
    Author: Hohenhaus AE.
    Journal: Probl Vet Med; 1992 Dec; 4(4):612-24. PubMed ID: 1472772.
    Abstract:
    Although the technique of transfusing blood from one dog to another has been known for centuries, transfusion is not easily accomplished in clinical veterinary medicine. There is a lack of blood typing reagents, suitable donors, and commercial blood banks. This situation is beginning to change, and this article focuses on practical and accessible transfusion methods for dogs. Also discussed are recommendations regarding the type of blood product to be used in specific situations, routes of administration for blood products, and complications of blood transfusion.
