Patient's question:
I am currently pregnant with my second child. I just had blood tests to check for Down syndrome, and the results showed a high risk. However, when I was pregnant with my first child, everything was normal. Could you please tell me if there is a risk of Down syndrome with my second pregnancy?What should I do if my second child is suspected of having Down syndrome?
Doctor's answer:
Currently, there is no effective treatment for this disease, and long-term patient education and training should be provided for children. Other deformities can be surgically corrected. Currently, there is no good treatment method. You can go to the hospital to check for complications such as congenital heart disease. The treatment effect is not very good, and most of them still undergo rehabilitation training. Please go to a local standard tertiary hospital for examination. After the cause is identified, the doctor will treat the symptoms to improve the treatment effect and make the charges fair and reasonable.
