What is ABO Incompatibility in Newborns about?

Immune hemolytic anemia (IHA) is a disorder where the immune system attacks red blood cells, leading to anemia, and can be classified into autoimmune and alloimmune types. Hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) occurs when maternal antibodies destroy fetal red blood cells, primarily due to Rh or ABO incompatibility. Diagnosis involves tests like the Coombs test and management includes prevention with Rh immunoglobulin and treatments such as phototherapy and exchange transfusion.
