The review presents the epidemiology and pathogenesis of sensitization in Rh-negative pregnant women having an Rh-positive fetus, the need for immunoprophylaxis of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn, indications, regimens, and the required volumes of immunoprophylaxis in different obstetric situations, and the choice of an immunoglobulin.
