Hello doctor! I'm 12 weeks and 2 days pregnant, I went for an ultrasound with a nuchal translucency of 1.2 and did a Double test. My result is an increased risk of down, ratio is 1: 172. I have done 1 more NIPT test, but it will take 7 days to get the results. My pregnancy is ivf pregnancy, screened. Doctor let me ask if the rate of my child getting sick is high? Please consult a doctor and give advice. Thank you doctor.

Hello! A high-risk double test result is <1/250. Your screening result of 1/172 is high risk. That means out of 172 pregnant women of the same age and health status as you, there are 171 pregnant women who give birth to a normal baby. Another pregnant woman gave birth to a baby with Down syndrome. However, this is a screening test, not a definitive diagnostic test. The accuracy of the test is about 80%. About 1 week left until NIPT test results. So, please wait patiently for the results to have a follow-up direction.
Thank you for trusting and sending questions about Vinmec Health System.
