Abstract
Blood transfusions are an essential medical intervention, often lifesaving in both elective and emergency settings. However, they carry the risk of acute and long-term complications. Acute transfusion reactions (ATRs), can broadly be divided into immunological and non-immunological reactions and can range from mild, self-limiting events to severe, life-threatening complications. This article provides an overview of the recognition, investigation, and management of transfusion complications. The article also highlights the importance of rapid management of ATRs and preventative strategies to optimize the outcomes for affected recipients of blood components.
