Overview:
Determination of ABO blood group for transfusion candidates. Blood grouping of expectant mothers and newborns may indicate potential for ABO hemolytic disease of the fetus/newborn.
Abnormal plasma proteins, cold autoagglutinins, positive direct antiglobulin test, and, in some cases, bacteremia may interfere with test interpretation.
