  • Title: Blood-component therapy: selection, administration and monitoring.
    Author: Chiaramonte D.
    Journal: Clin Tech Small Anim Pract; 2004 May; 19(2):63-7. PubMed ID: 15179925.
    Abstract:
    Transfusion of blood products is a frequent necessity in small animal practice. Transfusion medicine has become more sophisticated with increased access to blood components, knowledge of blood types, and cross-matching requirements. Although potentially life saving, this procedure does carry some risk. In addition to selecting the appropriate blood product, several steps need to be completed to prepare the product for administration and the patient for receiving a transfusion.
