Patient's question:
The results of the Down syndrome screening are as follows:1. Screening item: Risk of trisomy 21 syndrome: 1:20 screening result, high risk. What kind of help do you want: This result, what to do next?
Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that the mom do another amniocentesis check. In fact, the accuracy of the triple screen results is not always guaranteed, as the accuracy of the results is based on the premise that the data provided is correct. Sometimes, if the data provided is incorrect, the results will also be wrong. It's better to do an amniocentesis check first. Don't get too stressed, as it's not good for the baby. The accuracy rate of the triple screen is around 70%, which means that a high-risk result does not necessarily mean the child is a Down syndrome baby. You can choose to have a non-invasive test or an amniocentesis. It is best to do the non-invasive test as early as possible, because amniocentesis has a certain risk of causing a miscarriage.
