Headline: |
Study found that routine antenatal anti-D prophylaxis reduces the incidence of sensitisation in Rhesus D-negative pregnant women, and hence of haemolytic disease of the newborn. Its use in all Rhesus D-negative pregnant women is estimated to have a cost per quality-adjusted life-year gained of less than £35,000 for all regimens compared with not offering routine anti-D or limiting its use to Rhesus D-negative primigravidae |
