Patient's question:
What is the most important thing to check in the Down syndrome screening? If it's not good, will it be very serious?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Hello: This is a testing method that involves extracting pregnant women's serum, detecting the concentrations of alpha-fetoprotein, human chorionic gonadotropin, and free estriol in maternal serum, and calculating the risk coefficient for the birth of a fetus with congenital defects by combining the pregnant woman's estimated due date, weight, age, weight, and gestational age at the time of blood collection.Advice: The data needs to be checked. It can detect severe intellectual disabilities, Down syndrome, pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy (Duchenne type), and other conditions where patients cannot live independently. Some children may also have complex cardiovascular diseases, requiring long-term care from family members, which can impose significant mental and financial burdens on the family.
