“…9 Rhesus genotype is usually used for paternity testing in patients with Hemolytic Disease of New Born (HDN) and for predicting HDN through Rhesus genotype examination on a father if the mother has anti D. The most common father's genotypes provide a 0%, 50%, or 100% chance for the child to have a D Rhesus positive antigen. 11 However, this research did not aim to discuss the correlation between the diagnosis and the genotypes of the patients undergoing transfusion reactions.…”

“…Similarly, a research conducted by Zoysa NS 10 shows that the Rhesus positive is more prevalent in Asian populations than in Europe. 11 Besides, a research conducted by Akre 8 reveals that in sickle cell anemia patients, 62.8% of those patients receiving blood transfusions were affected by Rhesus and Kell antigens. Alloantibodies widely found in those patients were anti-E, anti-C and anti-Kell.…”

“…Neonates having O-B incompatibility have been reported to develop hyperbilirubinemia within 24 h of life, more frequently than O-A incompatibility 23 ; however, the present study did not find such difference. In the Rh system, there are five major antigens of clinical importance: D, C, E, c, and e. In a study from central India, 24 the distribution of five major Rh antigens found was as follows: D-91.6%, C-84%, E-25.3%, c-58.3%, and e-78.5%. There are 18 possible phenotypic combinations; nine belong to Rh D positive, commonest being DCCee (41%), while the other nine belong to Rh D negative, commonest being dccee (5.6%).…”

“…Rh c antigen is comparatively common in India with frequency ranging from 52 to 62 % of Indian population [12][13][14][15][16], meaning thereby that finding Rh c antigen negative blood units is not an easy task. Resolution of such incompatibility issues and finding of implicated antigen negative blood units is time consuming, and jeopardizes transfusions in case of emergencies.…”
