Fetal health is very important for pregnant women and the entire family. In order to better understand the health of the fetus and pregnant women, it is necessary to undergo regular prenatal check ups during pregnancy, one of which is Down syndrome screening. So can children at risk of Down syndrome screening still have it?
Down syndrome belongs to a very serious phenomenon of delayed mental development. If the fetus belongs to Down syndrome, it not only cannot take care of itself, but may also develop cardiovascular disease, requiring long-term care from family members, which has a significant impact on health and mental economy. If Down syndrome screening is risky but not high-risk, further examination can be conducted to determine whether to keep the child.
If the child is diagnosed with low to medium risk Down syndrome through Down syndrome screening after pregnancy, further examination can be conducted to determine whether to keep the child. In this case, further amniocentesis and fetal chromosome testing can be used to determine whether the child is eligible for Down syndrome. But if it is found through examination that the fetus with Down syndrome is at high risk, then it needs to be carefully considered.
Prenatal check ups have a significant impact on fetal development, so regular check ups should be conducted at the hospital throughout pregnancy. Once any abnormalities in fetal health are detected, timely treatment measures can be taken. For the healthy development of the fetus during pregnancy, pregnant women should also pay attention to rest more, avoid overwork, and stay away from radiation.
