The process of administering plasma transfusions in neonates involves several steps:
Assessment: The healthcare team evaluates the neonate's condition and determines the need for plasma transfusion. Blood Typing: Ensuring compatibility between the donor plasma and the neonateâs blood type to prevent adverse reactions. Administration: Plasma is usually administered through an intravenous (IV) line, and the infusion rate is carefully monitored to avoid complications. Monitoring: Vital signs and blood parameters are closely monitored during and after the transfusion to detect and manage any adverse events promptly.
