Q

Combined vs sequential screening for aneuploidy

A

Combined screening

  • 1st trimester + 2nd trimester
  • ↑Sensitivity
  • It’s good when mom is negative, but if positive, she’ll have less options because you waited

Sequential screening

  • 1st trimester –> invasive test if positive
  • ↑Specific but more invasive
