Aim:This research
aimed to determine the relationship between AB0 and Rh blood types and the
ordinary physical conditions in pregnancy.
Materials and
methods:
The research was carried out with 600 pregnant women in the third trimester
between 01/10/2021 and 01/10/2022.
Results: The mean
gestational week of the pregnant women participating in the research was
32.30±6.45. When the common complaints during pregnancy were examined according
to AB0 blood types, it was determined that pregnant women of 0 blood type had
more complaints. It was determined that pregnant women of different blood types
experienced different complaints and the results were significant (p<0.05).
In addition, there was no significant correlation between some diseases and AB0
blood types (p>0.05). Similarly, when the results regarding the Rh factor
were examined, it was determined that Rh+ and Rh- were protective against some
complaints and cause a risk for others.
Conclusion: The significant
correlation between blood types and ordinary complaints during pregnancy and
that women of different blood types experience different complaints can be a
guide for follow-up and care according to blood types.
