Abstract
The results of Anti (D) immunoglobulin (RhoGAM) therapy in 25 Rh-negative women after delivery of Rh-positive babies are presented. None of the patients studied showed evidence of Rh-isoimmunization while two of 51 unprotected patients subsequently had antibodies detected in their serum. The incidence of Rh-negative patients is low in this environment. Because of the potential risk of isoimmunization, RhoGAM prophylaxis is advocated.Entities:
