Blood Group & RH Phenotype Profile

• Safe blood transfusions
• Pregnancy planning (especially for Rh-negative individuals)
• Assessing risk of haemolytic disease of the newborn
• Organ donation or transplant compatibility
• Understanding rare blood type needs
• Medical preparedness for surgery or emergencies
• Investigating unexplained transfusion reactions or autoimmune blood disorders
• Family planning and genetics
• Some people may never need this information—until they urgently do

Recommended for anyone who doesn’t know their full blood type or Rh status. Particularly important for individuals planning pregnancy, undergoing surgery, donating or receiving blood, or managing certain autoimmune or haematological conditions. Also suitable for those wanting to be prepared for medical emergencies or better understand their genetic and transfusion compatibility.

• Rh incompatibility in pregnancy (risk of haemolytic disease of the newborn)
• History of transfusion reactions or complications
• Anaemia with unclear cause (e.g. autoimmune haemolytic anaemia)
• Need for regular blood transfusions (e.g. sickle cell disease, thalassaemia)
• Organ transplant planning or matching
• Autoimmune or haematological disorders involving red blood cells
• Rare blood type identification for donation or transfusion planning
• Pre-surgical assessment or emergency preparedness
• Family history of Rh or blood type-related complications
