Of all the physician-examinations that are made during the pregnancy, the blood test is one of the most important, because the blood type is not only determined, but rather also the factor RH that is the one that decides the couple's sanguine compatibility practically already from a start.
In experiments made with cute Rhesus, he/she was discovered that these animals have certain particularities in their blood (factor RH) that they can show up or (in which case one speaks of positive RH) not (negative RH) in the human blood. Around our population's 85% he/she has factor positive RH; therefore, 15% only enters a negative RH. The unborn boy's life is in danger if the mother has a negative RH and the father has it positive. 13% of the couples is in this case. If the boy inherits the mother's RH, that is to say, if his RH is negative, there is not problem; but if it inherits that of the father, its positive RH it is incompatible with that of its mom.
Some red globules of the blood of the fetus pass the mother and they cause in her the formation of substances that you/they are about neutralizing the boy's RH; those substances call themselves antibodies (anti RH), and they pass to the fetus destroying their red globules. The consequence of this destruction of red globules is the anaemia and the icterus.
Habitually in the first pregnancy there is not time like so that the mother has produced antibodies in enough quantity as to cause the anaemia or the icterus of the fetus, for what the first son is usually normal in these circumstances.
If the mother, in any moment of their life, he/she had received a transfusion with blood RH +, the first pregnancy will already have antibodies (anti RH), and the first son will enter alterations almost with surety.
In successive pregnancies, if they belong to children RH., the quantity of antibodies in the maternal blood will be every bigger time and each son will enter more serious alterations: icterus, anaemia and other different ones that are even incompatible with the life, for what the boy is born dead or he dies forthwith. Other times the pregnancy is discontinued precociously, giving place to an abort.
Knowing the problem before the beginning of the pregnancy, you can monitor the increase of antibodies in the maternal blood and even to discontinue the pregnancy to the eight months, in case the increase of those antibodies is very high, and before it causes serious disturbances in the fetus.
The most usual thing is that at the end of the pregnancy or during the same one, a change of the blood of the newly born one is made by another compatible one, free of antibodies anti RH. This treatment called exanguinotransfusión is some of those more employees, and with him it has been possible to save many children.
