The Blood Group ABO & Rh Factor helps determine an individual’s blood group and blood type (Rh type) at an affordable price in Kattupakkam with Tata 1mg labs. This test aids in differentiating whether an individual has A, B, AB, or O blood type. It also determines the Rhesus (Rh) factor (if the red blood cells are Rh-positive or Rh-negative). This test is necessary for safe blood transfusions as a mismatch can induce a rapid immune system response that can be fatal. Furthermore, determining the risk of Rh factor incompatibility is vital during pregnancy.

Understanding Blood Group ABO & Rh Factor

The ABO system of blood grouping classifies blood into four main groups, based on the presence or absence of specific antigens on red blood cells. These types include:

  • Blood group A: has A antigens
  • Blood group B: has B antigens
  • Blood group AB: has both A and B antigens
  • Blood group O: has neither A nor B antigens

Identifying the blood type is essential for matching donors and recipients, ensuring compatibility for blood transfusions and organ transplants.

The Blood Group ABO & Rh Factor test also checks the Rh factor, which can be either positive (+) or negative (–) depending on the presence or absence of the Rh antigen in the blood. Knowing the Rh factor is especially important during pregnancy. If an Rh-negative mother is carrying an Rh-positive baby, it may lead to Rh incompatibility. In such cases, the mother may need special medical care to prevent complications like hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN).

No special preparation is required for Blood Group ABO & Rh Factor. Inform your doctor about any medications or supplements you may be taking. Also, tell your doctor about any existing health conditions or recent blood transfusions. 

The Blood Group ABO & Rh Factor holds paramount importance in various medical scenarios, from emergency treatments to planned medical interventions. Knowing your blood type through this test ensures safe medical intervention and helps the doctor tailor interventions for optimal well-being.

There is usually no risk associated with this test. However, some people may feel a slight sting when a needle is pricked and may experience some bleeding that is normal and usually not bothersome. Rarely some people may also experience slight swelling or bruising at the site of the needle prick. Applying ice 3-4 times daily for about a week may help reduce swelling and bruising.
