Find Peace of Mind with Our Maternal Serum Screen 4 Quadruple Test
As an expectant mother in South Africa, you naturally want the very best for your growing baby. The journey of pregnancy brings both joy and understandable concerns about your baby’s health and development. Our Maternal Serum Screen 4 Quadruple Test is designed to provide you with the reassurance and early detection capabilities that modern medicine offers, giving you confidence throughout your pregnancy journey.
Understanding Your Quadruple Test
The Maternal Serum Screen 4 Quadruple Test is a sophisticated, non-invasive blood screening that evaluates four crucial markers in your bloodstream to assess your baby’s risk for certain chromosomal conditions. This advanced screening uses chemiluminescent immunoassay technology to measure:
- AFP (Alpha-fetoprotein): A protein produced by your baby
- Beta HCG: Pregnancy hormone levels
- Free Estriol: An estrogen produced by both you and your baby
- Inhibin A: A hormone that helps regulate your menstrual cycle
By analyzing these four markers together, our specialists can provide a comprehensive risk assessment for conditions like Down syndrome, giving you valuable information to discuss with your healthcare provider.
Who Should Consider This Important Screening?
This test is recommended for all pregnant women between 14-22 weeks gestation, with the ideal window being 15-20 weeks. It’s particularly important if you:
- Are over 35 years of age
- Have a family history of chromosomal conditions
- Have had previous pregnancies with chromosomal abnormalities
- Want comprehensive early screening for peace of mind
- Have diabetes or are a smoker during pregnancy
- Are carrying twins or multiple babies
Remember, this screening provides valuable information regardless of your age or risk factors, offering every expectant mother the opportunity for early detection and peace of mind.
