practice of transfusion medicine. With more than 90 selections from 25 sources, this 7.5" x 4.5” resource
covers a broad range of topics: blood donation, serology, apheresis, components, transfusion practice,
transplantation and two new sections on blood management and pediatrics.
New this edition:
- 10% additional material.
- Updates to many selections.
- Blood Management section.
- Pediatrics section.
