Blood transfusions, pump or gravity

slkt replied to kewlnurse's topic in General Nursing

For those of you using pumps for blood transfusions, what kind of pumps and tubing do you use. Can you use leukocyte removal filters with pumps? My clinic would like to use pumps but we're unsure whether our pumps would hemolyze the cells.
