Major blood loss following trauma is common, but severe anemia is generally not life-threatening when managed with the administration of blood and blood products. Severe anemia becomes particularly challenging and potentially lethal when the patient is a Jehovah's Witness, for whom receiving a transfusion is contrary to religious principles. This case report describes the management and hospital course of a Jehovah's Witness who was seriously injured in an airplane crash.
创伤后大出血很常见,但通过输注血液及血液制品进行治疗时,严重贫血一般不会危及生命。当患者是耶和华见证人时,严重贫血就变得极具挑战性且可能致命,因为对他们而言接受输血违背宗教教义。本病例报告描述了一名在飞机失事中受重伤的耶和华见证人的治疗及住院过程。
