T80.3: ABO incompatibility reaction

You had a blood transfusion from another person or you were given medication. Problems have arisen as a result.

Certain drugs can be administered directly into a blood vessel. Blood or blood components from another person are also administered directly into a blood vessel. To do this, a needle is inserted into a blood vessel and a tube is usually placed in the blood vessel. The drug or blood is then administered via this tube. This tube can remain in the blood vessel for several days. Sometimes the drug is injected directly into the blood vessel through the needle.

You have been given a transfusion of blood or blood components from another person. Your immune system reacted to the foreign blood. Various symptoms may arise as a result. For example, you may feel unwell or develop a fever, or your heart may beat very fast. Often, there is also a skin rash due to the immune reaction.
