Abstract

High risk infants, especially preterm ones, often require the administration of blood products. Specific guidelines and recommendations on this topic are continually issued and updated and their clinical application is strongly supported, in order to optimize the transfusion practice in neonatal and pediatric patients. Blood transfusion in infants has, in fact, specific indications, requires special considerations on technical procedures, and deserves particular awareness of possible errors and potential adverse reactions.
