Current transfusion medicine guidelines do not recommend transfusion of red cells in patients with a hemoglobin of 7 g/dl or higher or a hematocrit of 21% or higher IF their underlying medical status is stable (adequate cardiovascular/pulmonary reserves) and they are not not actively bleeding. Each 500 ml loss of whole blood is expected to decrease the partients hemoglobin by 1.0 g/dl and the hematocrit by 1-3%.

What would happen if you were given the wrong type of blood?
This depends on your blood type and the blood type you are given. Blood types are actually much more complex then the ABO, Rh pos system. These are only they types most likely to cause a reaction. Blood transfusion can be very dangerous. Before a transfusion, a test called a crossmatch is performed to see if the two blood types are compatible. Even if the ABO, and Rh types are the same, the blood may not be compatible.
