title: [Transfusion reactions after SAG-M blood].
abstract: The most common type of transfusion reaction is the febrile reaction, which is often caused by microaggregates in the blood transfused. Reducing the content of microaggregates lowers the rate of transfusion reactions. SAG-M blood is depleted of microaggregates. After changing from whole blood to SAG-M blood, the frequency of transfusion reactions fell from 0,83% to 0,24%.
