cassiepenn Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I was wondering if there is anyone still doing antibody screens on postpartum RHIG workups? Anyone still doing 1/8 dilution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIMPER55 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 can you tell me what the dilution process is ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epfeiffer Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 The Ortho 0.8% panel has a modified Antibody Screen specifically for Rhogam patients, the cells in the screen are all Rh negative and all clinically significant antigens are represented. It is a four cell panel denoted with @ sign. We used that to cut back on antibody identifications for these patients when they were not necessary.

EDibble Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 We do a screen to rule out any antibodies besides a passive D, but no dilution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
