Mrs. TA is 34 years old, admitted after a motor vehicle accident: pedestrian versus car. She sustained multiple injuries throughout her body. She will receive 2 units of whole blood prior to orthopedic surgery. She has NS 0.9 % infusing at TKVO through a Y-type blood administration set, and she has a 18-gauge cannula in the RFA. The surgeon orders are to infuse each unit over 3 to 4 hours. As you get out of report, the lab notifies you that the first unit of blood is ready.
