Q

what is the definition of the Rh disease called ERYTHROBLASTOSIS

A

the RBC of the fetus are destroyed if they are Rh positive and the mother is Rh negative, her antigen will make antibodies that will attack the baby with RH because she doesn’t have that factor, and this can kill the SECOND baby

Q

the treatment for erythroblastosis is Rhgam, why?

A

becuase it contains the antibodies for rh positive antigen, you inject it 72 hours after birth of Rh positive baby
