Pregascreen Quadruple Marker Reflex Test in Vasai

What Does a Pregascreen Quadruple Marker Reflex Test Measure in Vasai?

The test measures four specific substances in your blood to calculate the probability of genetic disorders and birth defects:

• Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) - A protein produced by your baby's liver that helps identify neural tube defects and chromosomal conditions.
• Human Chorionic Gonadotropin beta (HCG-beta) - A hormone produced by the placenta that may indicate increased risk for Down syndrome when elevated.
• Unconjugated Estriol (uE3) - A form of oestrogen produced by both your baby and placenta that helps assess chromosomal abnormalities.
• Inhibin A - A hormone released by the placenta that may be elevated in cases of increased Down syndrome risk.

Who Should Consider a Pregascreen Quadruple Marker Reflex Test?

This screening test is offered to all pregnant women as part of routine antenatal care, but it's particularly recommended for certain groups:

• Women aged 35 years or older at the time of delivery.

• Women who have previously had a child with a birth defect.
• Those who have used certain medications during pregnancy that could be harmful.
