History:
Early 1960’s: !% of all births were Rh(D) alloimmunized in Nova Scotia
NS infant mortality among highest in Canada
1964: Rh Committee established, modelled on Winnipeg Rh Program
2nd Fetal Transfusion in Canada --Halifax, 1964

Program GoalsProgram Goals
Reduce Rh(D) alloimmunization to lowest Reduce Rh(D) alloimmunization to lowest possible (0.4 per 1000 total pregnancies)possible (0.4 per 1000 total pregnancies)

Rh Program of Nova ScotiaRh Program of Nova Scotia
Effectiveness
•New Rh(D) alloimmunized women in NS: reduced from 1 per 100 in 1964 to 1.5 per 1000 in 1982 to <0.4 (.27)per 1000 total births in 2009
•Excellent Provincial compliance with guidelines
•Early detection and management of women with antibodies
