Blood transfusions

seipfamily posted a topic in Student Assist

So the question is: Order: 1 unit PRBC's to infuse over 2-4 hours. Infusion is started. How fast should infusion begin? What is the total volume to be infused? I have 1 mL for the first 15 minutes but how do I know how much a unit of blood is?
