Blood transfusion: The transfer of blood or blood components from one person (the donor) into the bloodstream of another person (the recipient). Blood transfusion may be done as a lifesaving maneuver to replace blood cells or blood products lost through bleeding or due to depression of the bone marrow. Transfusion of one's own blood (autologous) is the safest method but requires advanced planning, and not all patients are eligible for it. Directed donor blood allows the patient to receive blood from known donors.
An exchange transfusion, also known as exsanguination transfusion, replacement transfusion or substitution transfusion, is a blood transfusion in which the patient's blood or components of it are exchanged with (replaced by) other blood or blood products.[1]
