Blood Type Compatibility Chart


Sometimes we do not get the required type of blood during emergency need. In that cases we can use compatible blood groups to meet the emergency needs. A list of compatible blood groups are given below. Depending on whether you need only Red Cells, Whole Blood or Plasma, the compatible blood groups may vary. The following chart is for your reference only. Please consult with a qualified doctor for the decision making of blood transfusion.
