“…[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Regarding Rh grouping, like other similar studies in India, present study shows that more than 90% donors are detected as Rh +ve. Study conducted in Bangalore shows only 2 (0.005%) donors out of 36,964 with Bombay blood group (Oh).…”

“…Study has done in Eastern India, by Nag et al [16] showed O group to be the commonest group which is different from our study. In Southern part of India, studies done by Periyavan A et al [17], Das et al [18], Mallikarjuna et al [19] and Girish et al [20], found that the commonest blood group was O followed by B, A and AB whereas our study showed commonest blood group B followed by O, A & AB. [21], the commonest blood group is B which is same as in our study.…”

Introduction: India is a vast country with wide diversity in race, religion & creed. The same diversity has been observed in geographical distribution of blood groups in population within country. There are differences in the distributions of ABO, & Rh(D) blood groups amongst different populations. The study of blood grouping is important as it plays an important role in various genetic studies, in clinical studies for reliable geographical information and in blood transfusion practice as it will help a lot in reducing the morbidity and mortality rate. Methods: This study presents data about the prevalence of ABO & Rhesus (Rh) blood groups amongst blood donors during a period of one year (retrospective study from January 2014 to December 2014) conducted at Blood Bank of Shaheed Hasan Khan Mewati Govt. Medical College, Nalhar, Distt. Mewat, Haryana, India Results: During the study period, blood groups of 2724 donors were screened by antigen antibody agglutination method using commercially available antiseras which were validated at our Blood Bank. The study revealed that the commonest ABO blood group was B (38.83%) followed by O (28.70 %), A (22.90 %) and AB (9.54 %) respectively. Rh D Positive blood donors were 90.72 % and Rh D negative were 9.28 %.

a b s t r a c tBackground: The Rh system is the major blood group system besides ABO system. Even after proper blood grouping and cross matching there is a possibility of alloimmunization and antibody production in the recipients against the Rh or minor blood group antigens like Results: The phenotypic frequencies of Rh blood groups in the studied population were D-92.25%, C-87.55%, E-26.55%, c-51.06% and e-98.42%. Thus 'e' was the most common and E was the least common of all the Rh types. Phenotypically DCCee group was the most common phenotype and dccee was least common type.Conclusion: Determination of Rh phenotypes can play a major role in preventing alloimmunization and avoiding adverse events in multitransfusion cases.ª 2013, Armed Forces Medical Services (AFMS).
