Case #1Transfusion medicine / Emergency / Critical care

📋 Case data

Stop + verify; main presentationFever + hemolysis/hypotension/hemoglobinuria/DIC

Data is taken from this pathway's reviewed node text. Work through the pathway step by step.

Step 1 / 1 · Stop + verify; main presentation

First stop + verify — what is the main presentation?

💡 For all suspected reactions, step one: stop the transfusion immediately, keep the line open with normal saline, verify identity/blood bag, notify the blood bank and return the bag for testing (recheck type/cross-match/DAT). Then triage by presentation: fever ± hemolysis / respiratory distress / fever or rash only.
