Combined Screening with PLGF (DELFIA) + NIPT + Hemoglobinopathy by HPLC
A comprehensive prenatal screening package for maternal and fetal health assessment.
Why is this test done?
This advanced screening combines first-trimester risk assessment, fetal genetic screening, and hemoglobinopathy evaluation to provide a detailed overview of pregnancy health.
What does it include?
PLGF (Placental Growth Factor) by DELFIA – Helps assess the risk of preeclampsia and supports placental health evaluation.
Combined First Trimester Screening – Estimates the risk of chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome (Trisomy 21), Trisomy 18, and Trisomy 13.
NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) – Screens fetal DNA in maternal blood for common chromosomal abnormalities with high accuracy.
Hemoglobinopathy Screening by HPLC – Detects inherited blood disorders such as sickle cell disease and thalassemia.
Who should consider this test?
Pregnant women during the first trimester (11–13+6 weeks).
Women aged 35 years or older.
Those with a family history of genetic or blood disorders.
Early assessment of fetal chromosomal abnormalities.
Evaluates the risk of preeclampsia.
Detects inherited hemoglobin disorders.
Non-invasive and safe for both mother and baby.
Supports informed pregnancy management and timely medical decisions.
Note: This is a screening test, not a diagnostic test. Any high-risk result should be confirmed with appropriate diagnostic procedures as advised by your healthcare provider.
