IMMUNOHEMATOLOGIC OBSERVATIONS ON ERYTHROBLASTOTIC INFANTS. I. DIAGNOSIS AND PROGNOSIS

PHILLIP STURGEON M.D.1

1 The Pathology Department of Childrens Hospital, Los Angeles, and the Department of Pediatrics, University of Southern California School of Medicine.

With the use of the described developing test and other technics in immunohematologic observations on red blood cells and sera from untreated neonatal infants suspected of having erythroblastosis, it has been possible to make a specific diagnosis and to obtain data which will contribute to a more accurate prognosis than has been possible heretofore.

The AB serum, saline, and blocking tests as described lack the specificity and sensitivity of the direct developing tests for diagnosis; but when used alone, if the results are positive, they are of some value in the estimation of prognosis.
