Patient's question:
I have done the test that Dr. Tang said is high risk. I want to ask what is the high risk of the triple screen test?Doctor's answer:
Down syndrome screening is performed by extracting pregnant women's serum and calculating the risk coefficient for the fetus to have Down syndrome based on the pregnant woman's due date, age, weight, and gestational age at the time of blood collection. Down syndrome screening is an important part of prenatal care and can help prevent the birth of infants with birth defects. Birth defects have a significant and heavy impact on families. If the result of Down syndrome screening is high risk, indicating an increased risk of fetal abnormalities, further non-invasive deoxyribonucleic acid testing or invasive prenatal diagnosis may be required.
