Transfusion is an ongoing need, and as widely used it requires that quality and safety should be ensured to avoid, in particular, the transmission of diseases. It must be a custom treatment. Nursing roles are particularly important as the care required. The aim of this study is to determine the variability of nursing skills on the extraction of pre-transfusion samples and administration of blood products. Anonymous questionnaires were sent out on-line for subsequent filling and 180 nursing professionals participated. 74.4% of nurses said that blood transfusion can only be administered simultaneously with normal saline, 56.1% reported that each transfused packed red blood cells increases hemoglobin 1 g / dl. We found a consensus among the scientific recommendations and the responses made by different professionals, a fact that is confirmed by the low rate of adverse notifications registered in our study. The development and implementation of policy guidance regarding the administration of blood products is essential.
