2 July 2014 (Wednesday) - Anti - D

Whilst issuing anti-D this morning I found myself wondering if my knowledge on the subject was as current as it might have been. I did a little literature search and came up with a few references:

http://www.bcshguidelines.com/documents/Anti-D_bcsh_07062006.pdf
http://www.rcog.org.uk/files/rcog-corp/GTG22AntiDJuly2013.pdf

The last reference was perhaps for me the most interesting... it was from the obstetric point of view, and I was approaching the topic from a laboratory point of view. And it turned out that I was au-fait with current policies and procedures for the ante-natal administration of anti-D.
Mind you the whole thing is rather pertinent to me as I was watching when my daughter was given an anti-D injection a couple of months ago.
