What is Blood Transfusion?

If red blood cell is low, patients may need to receive transfusions. Important advice about transfusions: do not ask close family members to donate red blood cells until after a bone marrow transplant has been done or ruled out. This is because if a family member turns out to be the best bone marrow donor, a prior donation from a family member could reduce the chances for a successful transplant.
