A Blood Type Test finds your ABO and Rh group, such as A+, O−, or AB+. You may also hear it called ABO and Rh typing, blood group test, or blood typing. Your visit is quick, usually 10 to 20 minutes, with a short blood draw that takes about 5 to 10 minutes. You can book at participating labs on LabFinder and keep your results in our secure patient portal.
The Blood Type Test, also called ABO/Rh typing or blood group testing, shows which blood group you have and whether you are Rh positive or negative. This helps keep you safe if you ever need a transfusion, surgery, or care during pregnancy.
Common reasons: planning for surgery, checking your type before donating blood, starting prenatal care, or simply wanting to know your type for personal health records. If questions come up, LabFinder physicians review orders and results to help guide safe care.
You will check in, confirm your name and date of birth, and have a small tube of blood taken from your arm. Most visits take 10 to 20 minutes. The draw itself is just a few minutes, and then you can get back to your day.
Yes, this is a quick, routine blood draw and is considered very safe. You might feel a quick pinch, notice a small bruise, or feel a little lightheaded for a moment afterward, but those effects usually fade quickly. Be sure to tell the staff if you take blood thinners, have a bleeding disorder, a rash or infection where blood will be drawn, or if you have fainted during blood draws before. They will take extra care to keep you comfortable.
Simple prep: fasting is not needed. Drink water and wear sleeves that roll up easily. Bring a photo ID and insurance card if you have one. Tell the lab if you had a recent transfusion or stem cell transplant, as that can affect typing.
This test supports safe blood transfusions, pregnancy care including Rh factor checks, pre-surgery planning, emergency care, and matching for blood or organ donation. Your doctor will review your results along with your history and symptoms before recommending any next steps.
