How to Handle High-Risk Down Syndrome Screening?

Question

At four months pregnant, the Down Syndrome screening result is high risk. How should it be handled?

Answer

A high-risk Down Syndrome screening indicates a potential risk of fetal abnormalities, but it is not a definitive diagnosis. Confirmation can be obtained through amniocentesis, which usually has an accuracy rate of over 90%. During pregnancy, pregnant women should pay attention to balanced nutrition, avoid contact with chemicals and radiation, not stay up late, maintain good living habits, and follow the doctor’s advice for regular check-ups.
