In medicine, erythrocyte transfusion or red blood cell transfusion is the "transfer of erythrocytes from a donor to a recipient or reinfusion to the donor."[1]

Effect

Each unit of packed cells is 300 mL, containing 200 mL of red cells. The equation for predicting the rise in hemoglobin (g/dl) in adults from a transfusion is:[2]

The increase is approximately 1 g/dl in adults.[3]

Adverse effects

For more information, see: Transfusion reaction.
