The test is suitable for all expectant mothers who want to know as much as possible about the health of their baby

PRENASCAN is a test that determines the risk of genetic defects in the baby from a blood sample of a pregnant woman.

When should I undergo an examination?

• at a higher age of the mother (over 35 years)

• at an increased risk of trisomy of chromosomes detected during biochemical screening without ultrasound finding

• at biochemical screening without ultrasound finding

• at an atypical screening result with borderline risk

• in pregnancy after assisted reproduction

• at concerns about the fate of the baby

The risk of Down and Edwards syndrome increases with maternal age.

The risk of Turner syndrome is different, as it is independent of age and, up to a certain age, is higher than the risk of Down syndrome.

What risks can be detected?

• Down syndrome (trisomy of chromosome 21)

• Edwards syndrome (trisomy of chromosome 18)

• Patau syndrome (trisomy of chromosome 13)

  increased risk of spontaneous abortion (trisomy of chromosomes 9, 16 and 22)

• Turner syndrome (monosomy X), Klinefelter syndrome (trisomy XXY), changes in the number of X and Y chromosomes determining the sex of the baby

• disorders associated with the loss or excess of chromosomes or their parts (deletions, duplications, Copy Number Variations)
