PrenatalSafe Complete Plus test
This is a combined first trimester screening test that uses the strengths of the PrenatalSafe Karyo Plus and GeneSafe Complete tests, providing a new, significantly more accurate and comprehensive screening test than the aforementioned tests singularly.
The combined test is carried out for those whose pregnancy has lasted for at least 10 full weeks (10 weeks + 0 days). If you would like to know the duration of your pregnancy, please visit our pregnancy calendar.
- The PrenatalSafe Karyo Plus test allows the detection of Down, Edwards and Patau syndromes as well as other numerical and structural chromosomal pathologies, 9 clinically significant microdeletions and pathologies of the sex chromosomes, which all significantly affect the health of the child, from the mother's venous blood.
- The aim of the GeneSafe Complete test is to find out about 29 different fetal single gene pathologies that can cause 44 different de novo and 5 hereditary genetic diseases that are not very often detectable on ultrasound and often only appear in late pregnancy or the first years of life.
The GeneSafe Complete test requires, in addition to the mother's venous blood, an analysis of the child's father's oral mucosa. With the combined test, it is also possible to find out the sex of the fetus if you wish.
The answer to the test can be obtained 21 days after the blood test.
The price of the test includes a very early fetal ultrasound examination of developmental defects.
