The use of EldonCards has moved the rhesus determinations from the blood bank to the home of the pregnant woman. The midwife will be responsible for the rhesus determinations and for any
prophylactic treatment.
Midwives’ rhesus determination of babies born by Rh negative mothers will enable them to immediately administer prophylactic treatments to Rh negative mothers, who gave birth to babies found Rh positive. Midwives shall not mail samples of babies’ blood to blood banks and shall not wait for results of blood banks’ rhesus determinations.
Our DOCTOR’S KIT DKS RhD-10 for 30 Rhesus D determinations and DOCTOR’S KIT DKS RhD-25 for 75 Rhesus D determinations can be used by the practitioner, the gynecologist, the midwife, or a medical professional in a birth clinic or an abortion clinic. In most cases analyzers for blood group determination will not be available, but the analyst will benefit from the possibility of using whole blood (venous or capillary), which is applied directly onto the fields of an ELDONCARD RhD. The use of whole blood will save time, equipment, and money because the blood group determination will take less than 3 minutes. At the same time, a medical doctor can perform the blood group determination and talk with his patient.
