Abstract

Hospitalization rates among individuals living with HIV remain a significant challenge due to various complications, including opportunistic infections, anemia, and comorbidities. This review article explores the preventive benefits of blood transfusions as a strategic intervention in reducing hospitalization rates in HIV care. By correcting anemia, enhancing oxygen delivery, and improving overall health status, blood transfusions can play a vital role in preventing adverse health outcomes that often lead to hospitalization. We discuss the mechanisms through which transfusions provide these benefits, supported by clinical evidence and the implications for comprehensive HIV management. The role of blood transfusions extends beyond mere therapeutic intervention for severe anemia; they are increasingly recognized for their potential to improve patient outcomes and quality of life. By alleviating symptoms of anemia, enhancing organ function, and supporting immune responses, transfusions can contribute significantly to the health and well-being of individuals living with HIV. Clinical evidence indicates that timely blood transfusions can lead to fewer hospitalizations, better treatment outcomes, and overall improved health status. Keywords: anemia, blood transfusions, HIV, hospitalization rates, preventive care
