Rh Antibody
Also known as: Rh Antibody Titre, Serum
Overview
The Rh Antibody, Serum test checks your blood for the presence of Rh antibodies. These antibodies develop if you have Rh-negative blood and are exposed to Rh-positive blood. The test is most commonly used during pregnancy to assess the risk of Rh disease in newborns. If you're Rh-negative and carrying an Rh-positive baby, your body might produce these antibodies, which can attack the baby's red blood cells. Early detection allows for proper management to prevent complications for the baby
