Rh- Iso imunization Definition

known as:
Rhesus incompatibility, Rhesus disease RhD Hemolytic Disease of

the Newborn.
-When Rh– mother gets pregnant to Rh+ fetus —she may be sensitized to Rh antigen and develop antibodies. These will cross the placenta and cause hemolysis of fetal red blood cells.
- The risk of sensitization after ABO incompatible pregnancy is only 2%

Pathophysiology

The rhesus system which comprises number of antigens C, D, E,

c, e.
A person who lacks D antigen is called Rh negative.
15% of Caucasians, 5% African Americans and 2 % of Asians are Rh negative.
Rh isoimmunisation is due to D antigen in more than 90% of cases.
Occasionally hemolytic disease of the newborn is a result of maternal immunization to Irregular RBC antigens other than Rh group like anti- Kell and anti- Duffy

Pathophysiology Initial response is forming IgM antibodies for short period followed

Pathophysiology

Initial response is forming IgM antibodies for short period followed by

production of IgG which crosses placenta
IgG antibodies adhere to the antigen site on the surface of erythrocytes causing hemolysis.
The excessive removal of circulatory RBCs leads to severe anemia and hypoxia.
Erythropoiesis results in hepatosplenomegaly.
Tissue hypoxia and hypoproteinemia results in cardiac and circulatory failure, with generalized odema and hydrops

Fetomaternal hemorrhage as a reason of Rh –isoimmunization has been documented

in:

7% in the first trimester.
16% in the second trimester
29% in the third trimester
Risk of fetromaternal hemorrhage is increased in abruption placenta, threatened abortion, toxemia, after cesarean section, ectopic pregnancy, amniocentesis, intrauterine fetal transfusion.
And it occur during normal delivery

Natural History

50% of affected infants have no or mild anemia,

requiring either phototherapy or no treatment.
25% have some degree of hepatosplenomegaly and moderate anemia and progressive jundice culminating in kernicterus, neonatal death or severe handicap.
25% are hydropic and usually die in utero or in the neonatal period ( half of these the hydrops develops before 34 weeks gestation

The aim of antenatal management

To predict which pregnancy is at risk
To

predict whether or not the fetus is severely affected.
To correct anemia and reverse hydrops by intrauterine transfusion.
To deliver the baby at the appropriate time, weighing the risks of prematurity against these of intrauterine transfusion.
Слайд 16

Recognition of pregnancy at risk

First ante-natal visit check blood group, antibody

screening.
If indirect coombs test is positive, the father’s Rh should be tested.
Serial maternal Anti D titers should be done every 2- 4 weeks.
If titer is less than 1/16 the fetus is not at risk.
If titer is more than 1/16 then severity of condition should be evaluated.

Determination Of Amniotic Fluid Bilirubin:
By The Analysis Of The Change In Optical Density Of Amniotic Fluid At 450 nm On The Spectral Absorption Curve (delta OD450)
Procedures Are Undertaken At 10-15 Days Intervals Until Delivery Data Are Plotted On A Normative Curve Based Upon Gestational Age.

Severe form of hemolytic infant

Hydrops fetalis in any gestation term because of interm pregnancy would provoke antenatal fetal death.

In the second stage of labor pudendal block

and episiotomy are indicated (they decreasing fetal trauma).
In the all others cases pregnant women with the diagnosis of Rh- disease undergo delivery in the term of 37-38 weeks of gestation.
Induction of labor is performen by prostaglandin (in the case of “unripe” uterine cervix) or by intravenous oxytocin infusion administration (in the case of “ripe” uterine cervix).

- Screening of all pregnant mothers to Rh D

antigen and antibody screening for Rh D negative mothers.
