Administration of Anti -D

At the first pregnancy consultation the mother's blood group should be determined and blood taken for detection/ measurement of blood group antibodies. For complete and incomplete miscarriages all Rh(D) negative women who have not actively formed their own anti-D should be given 250IU of anti-D. There is insufficient evidence to suggest that a threatened miscarriage before 12 weeks gestation necessitates use of anti-D, but meta-analyses indicate that antenatal administration of anti-D (for all indications including miscarriage) can result in a 78% reduction in allo-immunisation.
