Coombs Test Indirect Without Titre

An indirect Coombs test is given to every pregnant person to see if they have antibodies against Rh-positive blood. For example, if you have an Rh-negative blood type (such as O-, A-, B- or AB-), your red blood cells don’t have the Rh factor marker on them. Antiglobulin testing, also known as the Coombs test, is an immunology laboratory procedure used to detect the presence of antibodies against circulating red blood cells (RBCs) in the body, which then induce hemolysis.
