Pregnancy can cause a range of emotions, from joy and excitement to anxiety about your developing baby's health. During pregnancy, you will read and hear about analyzes that can help you and your doctor know about your developing baby's health.

These assays are known as first-trimester screening include blood biochemical screening and ultrasound. Tests may reveal a higher risk of abnormalities in your child, and at this point your doctor may suggest you to invasive procedures such as chorionic villi analysis or amniocentesis. These invasive procedures are studying the DNA directly to your child, but they carry the risk of miscarriage.

In 2009, we developed a new type of screening test non-invasive prenatal test (INTI).This is a blood test that is much more accurate than conventional screening methods. When you are pregnant, your blood contains DNA fragments of your child.

Non-invasive prenatal test analyzes the DNA in a sample of your blood, to estimate the probability of chromosomal abnormalities: trisomy 21 (Down's syndrome), trisomy 18 (Edwards Syndrome) and trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome), sex chromosome abnormalities, triploidy, microdeletion. He also accurately sets the floor.

Some genetic disorders are associated with a family genetic history, but most of these chromosomal disorders are random and can occur in any pregnancy. Although the probability of such abnormalities increases with maternal age, most children with Down syndrome are born to women younger than 35 years.

Review of non-invasive prenatal test Panorama

"My husband and I decided we wanted to have a child in common. I have two children from his first marriage, but now, at the age of 40 years, I am very well aware of the potential problems and the risk of having a baby with a chromosomal defect. Unfortunately, my first pregnancy ended in miscarriage, but then, after a further 3 months, I became pregnant again - and then start all my worries!
I know that there is a 1% risk of miscarriage associated with invasive diagnostic procedures, such as amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling. Despite the fact that this is a relatively small figure, I was too scared to risk my pregnancy.
With test Panorama is no risk for the child, because it involves a simple blood sample from the mother, so it was an easy decision. We canceled our scheduled amniocentesis, and at the end of January 2017 I had a blood test carried out in the center of Panorama "Mom Dad."
I had complete peace of mind during the week, when we were waiting for test results Panorama. Even if the result is positive would come, I would have had time to make decisions. It gave me peace of mind, in which it was so necessary, so I can continue to enjoy your pregnancy. 10 days after blood collection, we got the result: the result was a low risk, and we had to give birth to a healthy baby girl!
I am really happy to announce that my beautiful daughter was born June 29, 2017. "
