How is blood transfusion made?

A blood transfusion - is giving a patient a quantity of blood to replace any that's been lost though an accident or injury. A small sample of the patient's blood is analysed to determine the blood group & type. This is 'cross-matched' with blood of the same type stored at the hospital. A unit (or 'bag') of blood is hung above the patient from a metal stand, and a needle leading from the bag is inserted into a vein in the patient. A combination of gravity, and the patient's heartbeat drains the blood from the bag into the body. The bag is replaced when empty or the donation is stopped once the patient's blood pressure returns to normal.
