Patient's question:
Pregnancy 16 weeks + 6 days. Past treatment and effectiveness: AFP: 32.47 MOM value 0.8981 HCG: 72542 MOM value 2.7109 Down syndrome 1: 136 Reference value 1: 380 What help do you need: Please help to review the results, thank youDoctor's answer:
From your Down syndrome screening results, AFP and hCG are significantly higher than the normal values. The Down syndrome screening result is 1:136, which is considered high-risk, indicating a relatively higher risk of Down syndrome. We recommend further amniocentesis to rule out the possibility of fetal disease.Guideline: Although your Down syndrome screening is high-risk, its accuracy is approximately 60%-70%, not 100%. A high-risk result from Down syndrome screening does not necessarily mean the fetus is diseased. Amniocentesis should be performed to rule out the possibility of fetal disease.
