A blood type test identifies your ABO blood group and Rh factor. It is commonly ordered before transfusions, during pregnancy, or for organ donation.
What it measures
- ABO group — Determines if you are type A, B, AB, or O based on markers on red blood cells.
- Rh factor — Shows whether you are Rh-positive or Rh-negative, an inherited protein on red blood cells.
- Antibody screen — Sometimes included to check for unexpected antibodies against other blood types.
Who it is for
A doctor may order this test before surgery, blood transfusion, pregnancy, or organ transplant. It is also done for donation or if you want to know your blood type.
