What happens to a person who receives the wrong type of blood?
If the blood types do not match, you run the risk of toxicity.
What is likely to occur if a person with type A blood receives a transfusion of type B blood?
If this happens, antibodies that the patient already has in his or her blood will attack the donor red blood cells and destroy them. This could cause fever, chills, chest or back pain.
Why can't you give type B blood to type A?
The short answer is that the Type B patient has antigens for that specific blood type, so when type A is mixed with the type B, the antibodies in the B blood kill the A blood cells, making it useless.
When a person with B blood receives O blood in a transfusion?
Nothing. O blood is the universal donor, which means any blood type can get O blood in a transfusion. Although this is true blood type O can only receive blood type O. This is because Blood type O has no antigens but has both antibodies A and B.
What blood type can A positive receive?
A person with type A blood can donate blood to a person with type A or type AB. A person with type B blood can donate blood to a person with type B or type AB. A person with type AB blood can donate blood to a person with type AB only. A person with type O blood can donate to anyone. A person with type A blood can receive blood from a person with type A or type O. A person with type B blood can receive blood from a person with type B or type O. A person with type AB blood can receive blood from anyone. A person with type O blood can receive blood from a person with type O. hope this helps, #JC# http://www.fi.edu/learn/heart/blood/types.html

What determines the type of blood that a person can receive in transfusion?
First you must have a type and screen which determines your blood type. Then the blood get cross-matched to see if it is a good fit. There are many factors that must be considered before a person receives blood. Of course in a trauma situation where there is no time to type, screen and cross match patients always receive Type O negative blood as this is the "Universal Donor."
Outcome when blood type A transfused blood type O?
If a person with blood type A receives blood from a person with type O blood, nothing bad should happen. Of course, this is not the end of the story; there is also the matter of whether the blood is "positive" or "negative". On the other hand, if a person with blood type O receives blood from a type A donor, the recipient will reject the type A blood. This is because of tiny proteins on the surface of the individual red blood cells. People with type O blood do not have these proteins, and so their red blood cells do not cause an immune reaction in the recipient's body. The same is true of the so-called "Rh factor" - the "positive" or "negative" part of blood. People with "negative" blood lack the Rh "antigens" or proteins, and will not cause immune reactions in other people. For this reason, people with "O-negative" blood are known as "universal donors", meaning that they can donate to anyone without causing problems. This makes them highly sought-after by blood banks because their blood is useful to many people.
