Description
The introduction of anti-Rh(D) immunoglobulin more than 50 years ago has resulted in only a 50% decrease in Rhesus disease globally owing to a low uptake of this prophylactic approach. The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics, International Confederation of Midwives, and Worldwide Initiative for Rhesus Disease Eradication have reviewed current evidence regarding the utility of anti-Rh(D) immunoglobulin. Taking into account the effectiveness anti-Rh(D), the new guidelines propose adjusting the dose for different indications and prioritizing its administration by indication. © 2021 The Authors.
