Questions: Which statement explains the significance of providing anti-D immune globulin to an Rh-negative client during pregnancy? Anti-D immune globulin increases the production of red blood cells in Rh-negative individuals. Rh-negative clients receive anti-D globulin to treat Rh incompatibility in the fetus. Anti-D immune globulin helps prevent the development of Rh incompatibility during pregnancy. Clients who receive anti-D immune globulin have a more robust immune response.

The answer is the third one: Anti-D immune globulin helps prevent the development of Rh incompatibility during pregnancy.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Anti-D immune globulin increases the production of red blood cells in Rh-negative individuals.
    This statement is incorrect. Anti-D immune globulin does not increase red blood cell production. Its purpose is to prevent the immune system of an Rh-negative individual from producing antibodies against Rh-positive blood cells.

  2. Rh-negative clients receive anti-D globulin to treat Rh incompatibility in the fetus.
    This statement is misleading. Anti-D immune globulin is not used to treat Rh incompatibility in the fetus. Instead, it is used as a preventive measure to stop the mother's immune system from developing antibodies that could harm an Rh-positive fetus in future pregnancies.

  3. Anti-D immune globulin helps prevent the development of Rh incompatibility during pregnancy.
    This statement is correct. Anti-D immune globulin is administered to Rh-negative pregnant women to prevent the formation of antibodies against Rh-positive blood cells, thereby preventing Rh incompatibility in future pregnancies.

  4. Clients who receive anti-D immune globulin have a more robust immune response.
    This statement is incorrect. The purpose of anti-D immune globulin is not to enhance the immune response but to suppress the immune system's response to Rh-positive blood cells, preventing the development of antibodies.

In summary, the correct statement is that anti-D immune globulin helps prevent the development of Rh incompatibility during pregnancy.
