Abstract

The pulmonary complications of transfusion (TACO, TRALI and TAD) are the leading cause of transfusion-related mortality and major morbidity. Advance in this area is essential in improving transfusion safety. This review describes the drivers for change in haemovigilance practice, the influence of recent key publications and future directions.
