O Rh-negative
Antibody screen: negative
Depending on facility policy Rh Immune Globulin may be recommended because of the inability to determine the weak D status of the neonate.
Neonatal Results:
Rh indeterminate due to positive direct antiglobulin test. Retest in 3 months.
Positive DAT probably due to circulating maternal anti-A.
