The Down syndrome screening is used to identify children with Down syndrome, which is a common congenital fetal malformation often seen in clinical practice. Generally, we recommend performing the test between the 14th and 20th weeks of pregnancy. In most cases, doctors will advise women with risk signs of prenatal examination to maintain personal hygiene and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to creating a comfortable environment, which is conducive to rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
