Blood transfusion is a medical procedure where blood or blood components are transferred from one person (donor) to another (recipient). It plays a critical role in treating various medical conditions, such as anemia, trauma, surgery, blood loss, and certain hematologic diseases. The science of blood transfusion involves several complex processes, including blood collection, compatibility testing, storage, and the administration of blood or its components to patients.
