In the interest of mothers-to-be, gynaecology and obstetrics specialists perform non-invasive prenatal ultrasound examinations of the first, second and third trimesters. In order to provide our patients with continuous monitoring of their baby’s development, we offer consultations on prenatal fetal diagnosis.

Our doctors work with certified imaging equipment, which allows high-resolution 3D images to be taken.

First trimester ultrasound between the 11th and 13th week of pregnancy
Second trimester (mid-term) ultrasound between the 18th and 22nd week of pregnancy
Third trimester ultrasound between the 28th and 32nd week of pregnancy
biochemical tests of the mother’s blood – PAPP-A and B-HCG proteins
amniocentesis
chorionic villus sampling
genetic testing of fetal DNA

Prenatal screening programme NFZ

The Ginemedica Medical Center has a contract with the National Health Fund for the implementation of the Prenatal Testing Program.

To use the services, you must have a referral issued by your pregnancy doctor, containing information about the advancement of your pregnancy in weeks. Reimbursed tests include:

biochemical tests of the mother’s blood – PAPP-A and B-HCG proteins
First trimester ultrasound between the 11th and 13th week of pregnancy
Second trimester (mid-term) ultrasound between the 18th and 22nd week of pregnancy

In contrast, a referral with information on indications for inclusion in the programme, together with a description of the abnormality and accompanied by test results confirming the validity of the referral, entitles the individual to perform:

amniocentesis
chorionic villi biopsy

We invite all pregnant women of all ages to take advantage of the Prenatal Screening Programme.

We invite all pregnant women, regardless of age, to take advantage of the Prenatal Testing Program.
The tests are carried out at Krawiecka 1/2 Street. To arrange an appointment, please call 530 929 758 or 71 727 62 03.

When to perform I/II/III trimester prenatal testing?

Prenatal ultrasound examinations are performed at precisely defined weeks of gestation:
I trimester 11+0 to 13+6 weeks of gestation
II trimester 18+0 to 22+6 weeks of gestation
III trimester 28+0 to 32+6 weeks of gestation

This has to do with the development of the various systems in the baby. The doctor takes detailed measurements of the baby to check that he or she is developing properly and that there is no cause for concern. These examinations are carried out by doctors specially trained for this purpose and certified by the FMF (Fetal Medicine Foundation).

Can prenatal blood tests be performed?

Of course! It is professionally referred to as free fetal DNA testing in the mother’s blood. Where does the baby’s DNA come from in your blood? From the cells of the placenta! The placenta is shared by both mother and baby. Approximately 10% of the genetic material in the blood is that of the baby. This allows analyses to be carried out to determine the risk of genetic defects in the baby.

This test is completely safe for the foetus. A blood sample is taken from the mother, in the same way as for other diagnostic tests, such as a blood count.
Tests available include Nifty-pro, Panorama and Sanco.

What is an amniocentesis? When should I have it?

Amniocentesis is an invasive prenatal test. The doctor punctures the abdomen to take a sample of the amniotic fluid containing the baby. Why? The baby’s skin peels, just like our skin. The amniotic fluid contains thousands of the baby’s epidermal cells, which contain only the baby’s genetic material. This makes it possible to carry out a genetic test to determine the karyotype. Current technology allows us not only to check the number of chromosomes (correctly 46,XY or 46,XX), but also their structure. In other words, amniocentesis makes it possible to determine the presence of genetic defects in the foetus.

The indication for amniocentesis is primarily an abnormal first trimester ultrasound or a high risk of genetic defects as determined by tests of free fetal DNA in the mother’s blood.

What is included in the Prenatal Screening Programme?

How effective is the Harmony, Nifty and Panorama test?

Harmony, Nifty and Harmony tests are extremely effective diagnostic tools. Prenatal tests of this type detect more than 99 % of fetal trisomy cases, with a false-positive rate of only 0.1 %. Other screening tests, such as serum tests and ultrasound, are also non-invasive tests, but have false-positive rates of up to 5 % and failure rates of up to 30 % for cases of chromosome 21 trisomy. On the basis of such tests, the presence of fetal trisomy can be falsely indicated when the result is actually negative (false positive) or, conversely, the tests can falsely indicate a negative test result for fetal trisomy when it is actually positive (false negative). Diagnostic tests such as amniocentesis or chorionic villus biopsy (CVS) have a very high sensitivity for detecting fetal trisomy, but they are nonetheless invasive tests and may risk fetal loss.

What information can the Harmony, Nifty and Panorama prenatal test provide me and my doctor with?

The Nifty, Harmony and Panorama prenatal tests determine the risk of so-called trisomies in the foetus, based on a measurement of the relative number of chromosomes in the mother’s blood. The test assesses the risk of fetal trisomies 21, 18 and 13 (explained below), but does not exclude all abnormalities.

Trisomy 21 causes Down syndrome, which is associated with mild to moderate mental retardation and can also lead to digestive problems and congenital heart defects. Down syndrome is estimated to occur in 1 in 740 births.

Trisomy 18 is caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 18. The disorder is responsible for Edwards syndrome and is associated with a high risk of miscarriage. Infants born with Edwards syndrome may have a variety of medical conditions and a limited, shortened life expectancy. Edwards syndrome is estimated to occur in 1 in 5,000 births.

Trisomy 13 is caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 13. This disorder is responsible for Patau syndrome, which is associated with a high risk of miscarriage.
