Abstrakt: The group and screen (G&S) are performed in early pregnancy to identify clinically significant antibodies (CSA) that may necessitate fetal monitoring for hemolysis/anemia or affect RhIg eligibility. Guidelines vary, including differences between RhD-positive and negative patients, but typically, the G&S is repeated at 28 weeks, and sometimes pre-delivery. We reviewed data showing a low risk (0.01%-0.43%) of detecting a new CSA in late gestation (late alloimmunization) and the risk of late alloimmunization causing severe hemolysis/anemia is even lower at <0.01%. Routinely repeating a G&S at 28 weeks and delivery may not be necessary for healthy, low-risk pregnancies.
