Baseline vitals should be taken prior to the start time of blood.
This is to ensure that if a patient has a fever before starting the transfusion, you can let the provider know and determine a plan to prioritize patient safety.
An increase of \(1^{\circ} \text{C}\) (\(1.8^{\circ} \text{F}\)) or more above the pre-transfusion baseline is the standard threshold for concerning fever during or within four hours of a blood transfusion

Karla Shapiro is a 62 y/o female presenting for hysteroscopy, secondary to dilation and curettage due to postmenopausal bleeding. Patient has a medical history of anemia with baseline hemoglobin of 7.1, HTN, seizures and anxiety. Patient has noticed an increase in vaginal bleeding soaking through 1-2 pads a day. She presented in the ER with fatigue, hypotension, and cold extremities. Pain denies tobacco, drug, and alcohol use and states that she lives with her husband on the second-floor apartment building. She states that she is worried about getting dizzy at home and falling if her husband is not home to help her. Her medications are listed below.
