Rhesusfaktor Rhesus Factor (Rh)

Quick Explanation

The Rhesus factor indicates whether a certain protein (Rhesus D) is present on red blood cells (positive) or not (negative). It's especially important during pregnancy, since with a Rh-negative mother and Rh-positive child, preventive treatment can be useful.
