OBJECTIVE:

To determine the maternal and fetal outcomes in pregnant women with Rh D incompatibility.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

A Retrospective cohort study carried out in the Maternal and Child Unit of Medellín, Colombia, in pregnant patients attended between 2013 and 2018.

RESULTS:

250 patients were included, in which the median age was 26 years. The O- blood type was the most prevalent in pregnant women with 55.2% and 49.2% of the patients had had between 2 and 3 previous pregnancies, in addition, 88% of the patients had not presented any sensitizing event during her pregnancy. 65.2% had a negative first Coombs result and the mean gestational age of the first Coombs was 28 weeks. 48% of patients received immunoglobulin G anti D at a median gestational age of 28 weeks.

CONCLUSION:

The present study confirms the clinical and sociodemographic data, however it suggests that it may be necessary to strengthen the opportunity in the early recruitment of patients for follow-up with Coombs and for the indication of prophylaxis.
