Final answer:

Anorexia and jaundice are assessment findings that indicate a hemolytic transfusion reaction.

Step-by-step explanation:

The assessment findings that indicate a hemolytic transfusion reaction are Anorexia jaundice. Hemolytic transfusion reactions occur when there is an incompatible blood transfusion, leading to the destruction of the transfused red blood cells. In the case of a hemolytic transfusion reaction, the patient may experience symptoms such as fever, chills, pruritus (itching), urticaria (hives), dyspnea, hemoglobinuria (hemoglobin in the urine), and hypotension (low blood pressure).
