Cover Story: Acute transfusion reactions are transfusion-related events that can significantly affect patient safety and therapeutic management. APTRs pose a significant challenge in transfusion medicine, requiring a multifaceted approach to therapy and prevention. Through hemovigilance procedures, healthcare professionals can enhance patient outcomes and transfusion safety by fostering awareness, promoting research, improving surveillance and reporting mechanisms, and prioritizing patient education and follow-up care. Such efforts will deepen the understanding of APTRs and support the development of more effective strategies for their management and prevention. View this paper
