Rhesus factor, английский
An antigen in red blood cells, which is an element in blood grouping. also called rh factor comment: the rhesus factor is important in blood grouping, because, although most people are rh-positive, an rh-negative patient should not receive an rh-positive blood transfusion as this will cause the formation of permanent antibodies. if an rh-negative mother has a child by an rh-positive father, the baby will inherit rh-positive blood, which may then pass into the mother’s circulation at childbirth and cause antibodies to form. this can be prevented by an injection of anti d immunoglobulin immediately after the birth of the first rh-positive child and any subsequent rhpositive children. if an rh-negative mother has formed antibodies to rh-positive blood in the past, these antibodies will affect the blood rhesus factor disease 354 of the fetus and may cause erythroblastosis fetalis.
