Having a blood transfusion

  • One of a series of films we produced to help patients, their families and carers learn more about some of the most common tests and procedures used to diagnose and treat blood diseases.
    Patients who have previously undergone these tests helped us to design the videos. Each film clearly explains what the procedure involves and addresses common issues and concerns including:
    Why your doctor recommended this procedure
    What you need to do to prepare
    What you can expect during the procedure
    What you need to do afterwards
    Not every patient will be referred for all of these tests and practice may differ slightly depending on where you are treated.
    Each film is available in English and also with subtitles in Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, Farsi, Polish, Portuguese, Somali, Spanish and Turkish at:

    I took a blood test yesterday, was called in 5 hours later into A&E because my haemoglobin was 68 and I was severely anemic, stayed overnight and was given blood in the morning. It was perfectly fine tbh. Don’t be scared if you need one!

      Yes we prefered to use large bore 18 or 2o Gage cannula size, because with small cannulization , blood transfusion will be slow and even stopped after some time.

      Really, getting your blood drawn doesn't really hurt. As long as the needle is in the vein and not the nerve, you'll hardly feel it. Doctors have been doing it to me since I was 8 to test my medicine. The only problem with donating is it takes over an hour to get it done (again, it doesn't really hurt, it's just really boring).
