Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Double volume exchange transfusion with 40 ± 5% hematocrit  All neonates with Rh isoimmunization will be screened for enrolment. The parents will be approached for consent after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. If consented, the resident on duty will pick a sealed envelope with an allocation of (40±5%) haematocrit for exchange transfusion. Venepuncture samples will be taken for total serum bilirubin estimation before and after double volume exchange transfusion to monitor and decide on the duration of phototherapy. The duration of intervention will be the length of the stay of the baby in the hospital. 
Comparator Agent  Double volume exchange transfusion with 60 ± 5% hematocrit   All neonates with Rh isoimmunization will be screened for enrolment. The parents will be approached for consent after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. If consented, the resident on duty will pick a sealed envelope with an allocation of (60±5%) haematocrit for exchange transfusion. Venepuncture samples will be taken for total serum bilirubin estimation before and after double volume exchange transfusion to monitor and decide on the duration of phototherapy. The duration of observation will be the length of the stay of the baby in the hospital.

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
To determine the duration of phototherapy in neonates requiring DVET with reconstituted Blood of lower haematocrit (40 ± 5%) in comparison to that with a higher haematocrit (60 ± 5%)  28 days of life (After DVET till discharge from hospital)which is the neonatal period  
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
To determine the post-exchange serum bilirubin in the two groups at 0, 6 & 12 hours  At 0, 6, & 12 hours after completion of DVET 
To compare the number of DVET per neonate between the two groups  Till discharge after birth admission 
To compare the number of packed cell transfusions post DVET between the two groups till 12 weeks  Till 12 weeks of postnatal age 
To compare the duration of hospital stay between the two groups  Birth to discharge after birth admission

Brief Summary   All neonates with Rh isoimmunization will be screened for enrolment. The parents will be approached for consent after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. If consented, the resident on duty will pick a sealed envelope with an allocation of (40±5%) or (60±5%) haematocrit for exchange transfusion. Venepuncture samples will be taken for total serum bilirubin estimation before and after double volume exchange transfusion to monitor and decide on the duration of phototherapy.
