  1. Welcome, Dr. Neha Gupta The Fetal Medicine Specialist

  2. WHAT IS COMBINED FIRST TRIMESTER SCREENING? Combined first-trimester screening includes the markers of the ultrasound (usually called as NT, NB scan) and the blood test- dual marker test. These markers on the scan and the values of the blood test collectively when combined, provides a risk assessment that tells us that the pregnancy is at high risk or not for genetic abnormalities like Trisomy 21 (Downs syndrome). For risk assessment, we use the software presented by the Fetal Medicine Foundation, UK. https://www.fetalmedicinesolutions.com

  3. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE SCAN? The purpose is to discover that the baby is growing or not and correctly, establish its gestational age. It includes checking the baby for gross structural abnormalities. The most crucial aspect is to assess certain markers like fluid behind the neck of the baby (nuchal translucency), presence of nasal bone, blood flows through the heart (tricuspid Doppler), and tummy (ductus venosus), and heart rate. It also presents us with an opportunity to assess the pregnancies who could be at high risk for growing high blood pressure or a weak baby during the pregnancy.

  4. WHAT PROTOCOL IS FOLLOWED WHILE DOING SCAN? We do the scan according to the guidelines and the protocol laid down by ISUOG (International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynaecology) and FMF (Fetal Medicine Foundation, UK). https://www.fetalmedicinesolutions.com/
