        Help!  

Question
Answer
Serologic testing for newborn   ABO & Rh typing; DAT; Eluate  
🗑
Serologic testing for mother   antibody screen & compatibility testing  
🗑
Newborn transfusion   aliquots or exchange depending on severity  
🗑
Exchange used to   remove high levels of indirect bili & prevent kernicterus; more likely in premature infants  
🗑
Exchange transfusion removes   maternal AB and sensitized RBCs' replaces incomp with complete RBCs; suppresses erythrpoiesis  
🗑
Blood selection   Group O, Rh neg, reconstituted with AB plasma; CMV neg, irradiated, HgS neg, less than 7 days old, AG neg for corresponding AB  
🗑
RH Immune Globulin   high titered RhIg, anti-D admined by IM injection; anti-D attaches to fetal D pos RBCs; AB coated cells caught in spleen & removed from circulation suppressing production of anti-D by mother  
🗑
Indications for RhIg   Rh neg, weak D neg, unsensitized mother immed after delivery of Rh pos baby or unknown blood type; give within 72 hours  
🗑
Indications for RhIg cont   @ 28 weeks to Rh neg, weak D neg, unsensitized mother; abortions or etopic pregnancies  
🗑
RhIg dosage & administration   1 vial for 15ml of RBCs or 30ml whole blood; massive FM of >30ml more than 1 vial given  
🗑
RhIg dosage & administration cont   screen for large FHM performed on mothers blood using rosette test; if positive a quantitative test done- Kleihauer-Betke, used to calculate anount of RhIg  
🗑
Other considerations   RhIg of no benefit of mother has anti-D; must not confuse RhIg anti-D with active immunity and vice versa  
🗑
Other considerations cont   must not interpret large amount of fetal D pos cells in circulation with weak D pos  
🗑
ABO HDN   IgG ABO AB cross placenta & attach to fetal RBCs; mild to moderate hyperbilirubinemia; exhcange transfusion rare; most common cause of HDN, 1:5  
🗑
