Brief Summary
|
Prenatal testing is the best strategy for reducing the burden of genetic
disorders and congenital disabilities that cause significant postnatal
functional impairment. Universal prenatal screening is advisable for common
genetic disorders and congenital anomalies such as Down syndrome,
beta thalassaemia and neural tube defects. Several prenatal-screening tests are
now available for Down syndrome, but knowledge about the appropriate timing of
the test and the need for pre- and post-test counselling may not be updated among
the primary care physicians. this will be a community intervention in which eligible couples will be provided awareness session regarding genetic screening. |
