Question
Through your description, it’s not said that the thorough examination of Down syndrome has a big impact on the child’s transformation, but rather that the possibility of the fetus having Down syndrome is what’s being considered. The final result is only two possibilities - yes or no. If yes, the child may have intellectual disabilities; if no, the child will be normal. The current result indicates how likely it is for the child to have Down syndrome. Generally speaking, if the thorough examination result suggests a ratio of 1:270 or higher, it is recommended to perform further tests such as amniocentesis. If the recommendation is high, we suggest proactive thorough examination to prevent any health issues in the child.
Answer
Down syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by chromosomal abnormalities. A prenatal screening result indicating Down syndrome suggests that the fetus may have the condition. The results typically present only two possibilities: yes or no. If the result shows that the child has Down syndrome, their intellectual abilities may be impaired; if it shows that the child does not have Down syndrome, their development will be normal. The current result indicates the likelihood of the child having Down syndrome. Generally, if the thorough examination result recommends a ratio of 1:270 or higher, further tests such as amniocentesis should be conducted. If the recommendation is high, we recommend proactive thorough examination to prevent any health issues in the child. I hope this explanation is helpful to you. If a child is at risk of Down syndrome, it is important to seek medical attention and treatment promptly to avoid misunderstandings and timely treatment.
