Blood transfusion; Transfusion reaction; Aged; Hospitals.Abstract
Objective: to identify studies on the main complications that blood transfusion can cause to the health of hospitalized elderly and to analyze the scientific evidence found. Method: integrative review carried out with studies in English from national and international databases published from 2017 to 2021. The main descriptors were “Blood Transfusion”, “Transfusion Reaction”, “Aged” and “Hospitalization”, combined through of the Boolean operators “AND” and “OR”. Results: 23 studies were included that portrayed the main complications of blood transfusion for the hospitalized elderly person. The twelve different complications were allocated into two categories: surgery-related or non-surgical complications. Longer hospital stay, mortality, transfusion reactions, postoperative acute kidney injury and postoperative delirium were part of the main findings. Conclusion: the mechanisms by which complications develop are not yet fully understood, highlighting the importance of encouraging new research involving this topic.
DESCRIPTORS: Blood transfusion; Transfusion reaction; Aged; Hospitals.
