When a person has a surgical procedure scheduled, his or her blood is often cross-matched and typed in case a transfusion is needed. What type of blood products could be received by a woman with Type A negative blood if this woman has been pregnanat and delivered a Rh positive baby?
What will be an ideal response?
A woman with this medical history is most probably carrying anti-B antibodies as well as anti-Rh antibodies in her plasma. She could receive Type A negative blood and Type O negative blood. The type A negative blood carries only the A agglutinogen. The Type O negative blood would carry no agglutinogens. Both these blood types would not react with the anti-B antibodies and anti-Rh antibodies.
