How to prevent Rh incompatibility hemolytic disease in newborns?

Patient's question:

A friend just had a little baby, but the baby was born with jaundice. The doctor said it's due to Rh incompatibility hemolytic disease. I'm quite worried, fearing that my own child might also be born like this. So, I want to know how to prevent this disease.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are two methods for preventing neonatal Rh hemolytic disease: preventing intrauterine or perinatal death caused by severe anemia and hypoxia; avoiding bilirubin encephalopathy caused by hyperbilirubinemia.
