Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the clinic value of the double marker prenatal screening system for Down′s syndrome(DS),trisomy 18 and neural tube defects(NTD).Methods: Double label time-resolved fluorescence method was used to test the concentrations of AFP and Free-β-hCG in the serum of 9338 middle period pregnant women who were pregnant for 15-20+6 weeks.combined with gestational age,weight,age and other factors,we evaluated the risk assessment with assessment software.Results: In 9338 cases,the positive rate 4.7%(437/9338),with 2.8%(262 cases)of Downs syndrome and 1.3%(119 cases) of NTD and 0.6%(56 cases) of 18-trisome syndrome.Conclusion: The combination of the serum biochemistry results of AFP and Free-β-hCG can effectively reduce congenital fetal malformtion.
