RHESUS BLOOD GROUP & HAEMOLYTIC DISEASE OF THE NEWBORN — UACE BIOLOGY
In this BiologyKingUg lesson, we make the Rhesus blood group system and haemolytic disease of the newborn simple, clear and easy to understand.
🩸 In this lesson, you will learn:
• What the Rhesus (Rh) blood group is
• The difference between Rh-positive and Rh-negative individuals
• How Rh antigens and antibodies are involved
• What happens when an Rh-negative mother carries an Rh-positive fetus
• How sensitisation occurs
• Why a subsequent Rh-positive pregnancy can be at greater risk
• How maternal antibodies cross the placenta and affect fetal red blood cells
• How haemolytic disease of the newborn develops
• Prevention of Rh sensitisation using anti-D immunoglobulin
• Important points to remember for UACE Biology examinations
