What is a DAT test?

It means that a blood test, called a Coombs test, or Direct Antibody Test (DAT), was done on your baby and was positive. This test is frequently performed on newborn babies. Usually the blood is taken from the baby’s cord while it is attached to the placenta following delivery. Sometimes it is taken from the baby.
