A hemolytic transfusion reaction occurs when red blood cells are destroyed after a blood transfusion. This can be due to an incompatible blood type or antibodies against the donor's red blood cells. Symptoms can include fever, chills, back pain, and dark urine. Treatment involves stopping the transfusion, supportive care, and sometimes medication to help the body eliminate the damaged red blood cells.
