Does the following check have problems with Down syndrome?

Patient's question:

The critical value during pregnancy is 1/270. So, does that mean 1:340 is also normal? Although it's considered moderate risk, it's still helpful.
Could you please take a look and let me know if further testing is needed? I have a moderate risk.

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you mentioned above, the critical value for the Down syndrome screening is 1/270, and yours is 1:340. Although this data is not in the high-risk range, it is not low-risk either. It is recommended to have a non-invasive DNA test. Moreover, even if it is high-risk, it does not necessarily mean the child will have a problem. Do not worry too much and have regular follow-up tests. There are many methods for treating diseases, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment methods will also differ. Therefore, it is necessary for the patient to go to a professional institution for detailed testing as soon as possible to prescribe the correct treatment.
