This test is run from cord blood. [2] In some cases, the direct coombs will be negative but severe, even fatal HDN can occur. [35] An indirect coombs needs to be run in cases of anti-C, [36] anti-c, [36] and anti-M. Anti-M also recommends antigen testing to rule out the presence of HDN. [26] Hgb - the infant's hemoglobin should be tested from ...
