Yes, I agree that, in this particular case, you could have missed the immune anti-D gagpinks, BUT, as I have said several times throughout this thread, this is a very unusual case. I am no statistician, and so I would not like to say that it is 1 in a million or something like that, but I will say that it is 1 in an awful lot and, because of the rarity of such a case, I would also say that, if a cost/benefit study was to be performed, to see if there should be any changes to the BCSH or RCOG Guidelines with regard to when to test the women's plasma during pregnancy, the answer would be that the Guidelines would not change, as so few cases would be detected, compared with the cost of being able to detect such cases. So, yes, in this case if you had not noticed the strength of reaction, the immune anti-D may not have been detected, and it may have resulted in a baby affected by the anti-D, but one cannot change general Guidelines using such unusual cases.
