Medical necessity is determined by the patient's Rh-negative status and exposure to Rh-positive blood. Payer policies may vary.
Administered by a healthcare professional in a clinical setting.
In simple words: This injection prevents Rh-negative people from developing antibodies against Rh-positive blood, which can happen during pregnancy or a blood transfusion.
This code represents Rho(D) immune globulin, treated with a solvent detergent, for intravenous administration. It is used to prevent Rh hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) and isoimmunization in Rh-negative individuals who have received Rh-positive blood transfusions.
Example 1: An Rh-negative pregnant woman receives a dose of Rho(D) immune globulin intravenously at 28 weeks gestation to prevent potential sensitization to Rh-positive fetal blood., An Rh-negative individual receives a mismatched transfusion of Rh-positive blood and is given J2792 to prevent the formation of anti-D antibodies. , An Rh-negative woman experiences a miscarriage or induced abortion and is administered J2792 to prevent Rh sensitization from potential exposure to Rh-positive fetal blood.
