transfused

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fed in intravenously' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'fluid daft nurses' is the wordplay.
'fluid' indicates anagramming the letters.
'daft'+'nurses'='daftnurses'
'daftnurses' with letters rearranged gives 'TRANSFUSED'.
