Title: A Case Study of University of Calabar Teaching Hospital, Calabar, Cross River State, Nigeria, on the Rhesus Phenotype of Blood Donors in Calabar
Abstract: Background. There is evidence that rhesus antigens can cause both acute and delayed transfusion reactions, as well as newborn haemolytic disease. This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of the rhesus antigens (C, c, D, E, and e) in the population under investigation. Method. This cross-sectional study included 130 potential blood donors who visited the donor clinic at the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital (UCTH). The common serological method was used to group donors for the analysis of Rh antisera (anti-E, anti-e, anti-C, anti-c, and anti-D). Result. “C” was the Rh antigen with the highest prevalence (98.5%), followed by “D” (97.7%), and “C” had the lowest prevalence (30.7%). cDe/cDe was the most prevalent phenotype (R0R0). Conclusion. Therefore, it can be concluded from this work that among blood donors at the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital, c and cDe/cDe were the most common rhesus antigen and rhesus phenotype.
