no.
During a blood transfusion is the patients old blood removed from the body?
Not generally. The point of a transfusion is to replace lost blood, so removing blood as you put it in from the transfusion defeats the purpose. Sometimes before surgery, you will undergo "saving" blood, that is before surgery some of your blood is drawn and saved, so it can be put back in after surgery. (This is done weeks in advance, so your body has time to get its blood levels back to normal.) Student Doctor

Why does a transfusion reaction not occur the first time a rh positive patient is exposed to rh negative blood?
the transfusion reaction doesn't occur the first time an Rh+ patient is exposed to Rh- blood because the Rh+ patients body hasn't created the antibodies needed to attack the Rh- blood that it comes in contact with. the second time the Rh+ patients body comes in contact with Rh- blood, it will have the antibodies necessary to fight against Rh- blood.

Jehovah's Witnesses who have lost blood are entitled to refuse a blood transfusion even if it will inevitably lead to their death; but they have no right to sentence their children to die. A qualified doctor is entitled to give a blood transfusion provided the child's consent is given. If the doctor is unhappy about this (though why should any doctor be unwilling top save a child's life?), the case should be referred to a doctor who is free from such qualms. If the Jehovah's Witness parent seeks to intervene to prevent the transfusion, the case should be rushed to court, if there is time. If not, the child should be given blood immediately.
