    Blood transfusion consists of administering compatible donor blood or blood components to treat clinical conditions like low blood volume, platelet or coagulation deficiencies, or anemia. The procedure requires checking physician orders and the patient's condition, identifying the patient, checking blood availability with the blood bank, explaining the procedure to the patient and obtaining consent, and obtaining the blood from the blood bank according to agency policy. Proper techniques are important to prevent transfusion reactions, and patients should report any unusual symptoms immediately to allow for prompt corrective measures.
