Quizplus · Accepted Answer

It is priority to closely observe the client for the first five to 10 minutes of the transfusion to assess for any adverse reactions. After that, vital signs can be taken and an AIN can sit with the client if the nurse needs to leave the room. The client should also be advised to notify the nurse if they experience any adverse reactions during the transfusion.
