Final answer:
The appropriate code for the blood transfusion performed on 2-day-old infant Charles Joseph is D) 36450, which relates to transfusions in neonates.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer for the type of procedure performed on Charles Joseph would be code D) 36450. This code relates to a transfusion procedure performed on a neonate, or a newborn that is less than a month old, which Charles Joseph falls under as he is just a 2-day-old infant. The weight of the infant does not impact the choice of this code. Codes A) 36430, B) 36415, and C) 36410 do not apply to this case as they refer to different types of venous procedures.
