The person with Rh- blood will begin to make antibodies against Rh+ upon exposure. This may not occur with the first transfusion - but it is still not recommended to give an Rh- person Rh+ blood.

What happen if you give RH- person RH plus blood if they have already been exposed to RH plus blood?
it will cause hypersensitization in RH- person
Can Rh negative patient receive Rh positive plasma?
A Rh negative patient cannot receive Rh positive blood as it will cause a antibody reaction to the donor plasma, but a Rh positive patient can receive Rh negative blood as the donor blood lacks the Rh antibody component. PS the Rh factor is present on Red blood cells and not in Plasma
What type of blood can a person with type B RH-negative receive?
A person with Type B Rh negative blood can receive B Rh negative red cells or O Rh negative red cells. If no Rh negative blood is available, this person could receive B or O Rh positive blood, but this would not be recommended for women of child bearing age as the exposure to the D antigen (D is the Rh positive part) may cause this person to form an antibody against the D (Rh) antigen (Anti-D). Anti-D may cross the placenta and attach to D positive cells in the fetus leading red cell destruction and other serious consequences.
Is it possible for a patient with O- receive O plus blood type?
Yes, it is possible to give O Positive blood to O Negative patients, but it is not likely to happen. Blood Bankers are trained to "match" blood to the person receiving the blood and these two types, while compatible, are not a good "match". The presence of the Rh factor in O Positive blood is likely to cause an immune response when given to a patient that does not have the Rh factor as in Rh Negative blood. The opposite is acceptable. It is perfectly OK to give Rh Negative blood to and Rh Positive person since they will not be getting something they do not already posses.
What is likely to happen to a donor's cells if an Rh- person who is sensitive Rh plus blood receives a transfusion of Rh plus blood?
They will have what is called a transfusion reaction. The red blood cells will start to breakdown, the body will not get enough oxygen, the kidneys will fill up with protein from the blood, breathing will slow down or stop, and the person can go into shock and die.
What happen if you give RH- person RH plus blood if they have already been exposed to RH plus blood?
it will cause hypersensitization in RH- person
What can happen if an RH- person receives RH plus blood?
They could potentially develop an antibody.
What types of blood can a person with Type A receive?
Consideration must be given to whether or not the person is Rh positive or Rh negative. A person with blood type A positivecan receive A positive, A negative, O positiveand O negative blood. A person with A negative blood can only receive A negative and O negative blood.
Why cant a woman that is rh negative donate blood?
This not entirely true while an Rh- person can not receive Rh+ blood due to the fact as stated above an Rh+ person can receive Rh- blood because there is no Rh in the blood. This is why O- people are universal donors meaning they are able to give blood to anyone, but can only receive 0- blood.
Difference Between blood group A plus ve and A-ve?
Rh factor or rehsus factor is also involved in blood groups. either a person is Rh+ or Rh- if u are A+ then u have blood group A and you are Rh+ if you are A- then you have blood group A and you are Rh-
What are Rh antigens?
They are a type of antigen that some people carry on their red blood cells. They are called "rhesus" because they were initially identified and studied on the red blood cells of rhesus monkeys, then were later also found in humans. If a person has Rh+ blood type they have this antigen, if a person has Rh- blood type they do not. They are important in blood transfusions in that a person with Rh+ blood type can receive either Rh+ or Rh- blood with no problems, but a person with Rh- blood type can only receive Rh- blood (Rh+ blood could kill him when antibodies from his immune system attack the rhesus antigen, causing massive blood clotting). They are important in pregnancy in that a woman with Rh- blood type has a much higher chance of miscarriage if her baby has Rh+ blood type. Note: there are roughly 30 different classes of blood type antigens, not just the familiar A, B, and Rh antigens. Most however are very rare.
Can Rh negative patient receive Rh positive plasma?
A Rh negative patient cannot receive Rh positive blood as it will cause a antibody reaction to the donor plasma, but a Rh positive patient can receive Rh negative blood as the donor blood lacks the Rh antibody component. PS the Rh factor is present on Red blood cells and not in Plasma
What blood types can person with blood type B negative receive?
A person with Type B Rh negative blood can receive B Rh negative red cells or O Rh negative red cells. If no Rh negative blood is available, this person could receive B or O Rh positive blood, but this would not be recommended for women of child bearing age as the exposure to the D antigen (D is the Rh positive part) may cause this person to form an antibody against the D (Rh) antigen (Anti-D).

What type of blood can a person with type B RH-negative receive?
A person with Type B Rh negative blood can receive B Rh negative red cells or O Rh negative red cells.

Can a man with O rh plus and a woman with O rh plus have a child with O rh- blood?
Yes - it is possible. Firstly, if both parents have the blood type O, then the child must also have blood type O. Rh positive is dominant, so a person who is Rh + may be heterozygous (Rh+/Rh-). Both parents in this case would need to be heterozygous for the child to be Rh-.
Can a person with o blood type receive anything but o type blood?
The O blood type is known as the universal donor, but there is one catch the Rh factor, people who are O - (people who don't have the Rh factor) can donate to anyone, but if the person if O+, then they can donate to anyone who is Rh +, so yes there could be a problem depending on the Rh factor.
Can a Rh negative person can safely receive any type of blood?
Only O negative.
