Abstract EN

A study had been carried out to determine the distribution of ABO and Rh phenotypes in the population of Babylon Governorate.

The study group included a total of 7317 donors, who were registered in the central blood banks at Al-Hilla General Teaching hospital during the period (February 2007 to May 2007).

7184(98.2%) were males and 133(1.8%) were females.

The highest prevalence was that of blood group O (35.5 %) followed by blood groups A and B (27.7% and 28.3 % respectively) and the lowest of blood group AB (8.3%).

The Rh phenotypes distribution also varies among the ABO blood groups.

The total percentage of Rh positive was 90.1% and that of Rh negative was found to be 9.9%.

The current study provides the estimation of the distribution of the proportion of ABO blood groups and Rh for the population of Babylon governorate.
