What Are the Risks of Blood Transfusions in Toxicology?
While blood transfusions can be life-saving, they are not without risks. Potential complications include allergic reactions, infections, and transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI). In the context of toxicology, it is crucial to carefully assess the need for transfusion against these risks. Additionally, some toxins can cause or exacerbate bleeding disorders, complicating the transfusion process.
