NTD’s Premier Test:
Maternal Fetal Screen | T1SM
The Most Comprehensive Overall Pregnancy Health Evaluation
Maternal Fetal Screen | T1SM is the only test to combine first-trimester aneuploidy risk assessment with early onset preeclampsia (EOPE) in one report—providing your patient with a comprehensive personalized risk result as early as 10 weeks’ gestation.
By combining ultrasound measurements with the analysis of five biochemical markers, MFS|T1SM provides increased detection for Down Syndrome, at 98% with a 1.2% false positive rate. It also casts a wide net for other maternal and fetal issues, such as other aneuploidies, preeclampsia, low birth weight, fetal loss, and stillbirth.

Chromosomal Abnormalities
The chromosome abnormalities screened for in this test including:
-
Early onset preeclampsia
Preeclampsia is a serious hypertensive disorder in pregnancy. It can happen to any pregnant woman during the second half of her pregnancy. When it results in delivery before 34 weeks’ gestation, it is called “early-onset preeclampsia,” and is often more associated with morbidity and mortality.
-
Other obstetric complications
The analysis of the biological markers in mom’s blood may also offer insight for other maternal and fetal concerns such as low birth weight, fetal loss and stillbirth.
