What is the maximum days the report can be obtained for the test

The maximum days the report can be obtained for the Double Marker Reflex Test To NIPT is 7-10 days.

What are the prerequisites for the test Double Marker Reflex Test To NIPT

  • Maternal age between 10 and 55 years old
  • Pregnancy between 9 and 14 weeks gestation
  • Normal fetal ultrasound findings
  • Singleton pregnancy
  • Not taking any medications known to affect test results

What are the measure values for the test Double Marker Reflex Test To NIPT

  • Free Beta-hCG: 0.0 - 2.0 MoM
  • PAPP-A: 0.0 - 2.0 MoM
  • Nuchal Translucency: 1.0 - 2.5 mm
  • NT MoM: 0.0 - 2.0 MoM

What does this test Double Marker Reflex Test To NIPT identify?

  • Double Marker Reflex Test: This test identifies markers in the maternal blood that are associated with an increased risk of certain chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome and trisomy 18. The markers measured in this test are free beta-hCG and PAPP-A.
  • NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing): NIPT is a screening test that analyzes fetal DNA in the maternal blood to assess the risk of chromosomal abnormalities, such as trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), trisomy 18, and trisomy 13. NIPT is more accurate than traditional screening tests and can also detect other genetic conditions, such as sex chromosome abnormalities.

Why is this test Double Marker Reflex Test To NIPT taken?

The Double Marker Reflex Test is taken to assess the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in a fetus during pregnancy. This test is usually recommended to pregnant women who have an increased risk of having a baby with a chromosomal disorder, such as advanced maternal age, a family history of genetic disorders, or abnormal findings on a previous ultrasound or blood test.

The Double Marker Reflex Test measures two specific proteins in the mother's blood (beta-hCG and PAPP-A) to evaluate the risk of Down syndrome and other chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus. If the results indicate a higher risk, further testing such as Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT) may be recommended to confirm the diagnosis.

Popular FAQs on Test

The Double Marker Reflex Test is a screening test conducted during pregnancy to assess the risk of chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome and Trisomy 18 in the fetus. It measures the levels of two specific proteins in the mother's blood - PAPP-A and free beta-hCG.
The Double Marker Reflex Test is a screening test that measures the levels of specific proteins in the mother's blood, while NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) is a more advanced genetic test that analyzes the fetal DNA circulating in the mother's blood. NIPT provides more accurate results compared to the Double Marker Reflex Test.
The Double Marker Reflex Test is usually recommended between 11-13 weeks of pregnancy to assess the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus. It is commonly offered to women who are at an increased risk based on factors such as maternal age, family history, or abnormal ultrasound findings.
No, the Double Marker Reflex Test is a screening test and does not provide a definitive diagnosis of chromosomal abnormalities. It only indicates the risk level based on the protein levels in the mother's blood. Further diagnostic testing such as amniocentesis or CVS may be recommended if the results indicate a higher risk.
