What are the prenatal examination items?

Patient's question:

Tomorrow I'm taking my wife for her first prenatal check-up. I don't have much experience, what are the detailed items checked during the first prenatal check-up?

Doctor's answer:

The main items of the first prenatal examination include: urinalysis, fetal heart rate, blood pressure, and weight.
Blood draw: This primarily involves testing the pregnant woman's blood count, blood type, screening for thalassemia, blood sugar, blood lipids, liver function, kidney function, and syphilis, hepatitis B, HIV, and viral infection status. Additionally, the doctor will inquire about the pregnant woman's medical history and weight. Based on the specific and detailed examination results, arrangements will be made to determine if further examinations are necessary.
