It really doesn't affect the antibody levels with the blood loss during surgery. If vaccination is not completed then complete it.

Surgery under general anesthesia and minor blood loss do not reduce rabies antibody levels or immunity. If you have completed the full rabies vaccination schedule correctly, no extra doses are needed.
Next Steps
Continue routine follow-up only.
Health Tips
Additional vaccination is required only if doses were missed or delayed
