Test Comments: Help
Hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) results from sensitization of the mother’s immune system to foreign antigens present on the red cells of the fetus. Many red cell antigen systems have been associated with HDFN when incompatibilities exist between the mother and fetus. When a pregnant woman presents … View more

Analytical Validity: Help
Analytical sensitivity is >99% for mutations within the coding sequence and intron/exon borders.
Assay limitations: Help
The RhD assay detects the presence or absence of the RhD gene; it does not determine zygosity. Rare variant alleles may not be identified by these assays. Testing parental samples by phenotyping and genotyping is recommended in order to identify discrepancies that may lead to false-negative and false-positive results. Maternal … View more
