If not previously sensitized, MICRhoGam (a smaller dose of Rh immune globulin) is given after an abortion or ectopic pregnancy to prevent sensitization. If not sensitized, RhoGam is given to the woman within 72 hours of delivery. Rh-immune globulin is never given to the newborn.To determine if sensitization has occurred, an Indirect Coombs’ is drawn on the mother to measure the number of Rh-positive antibodies.
