NIPT Harmony Prenatal test stands for Non-Invasive Prenatal testing and is a blood based screening test from the pregnant woman. The blood test can be performed early as week 10+0 and the standard test analyses the probability that the fetus has Downs, Edwards and Patau syndrome. Options are available for analysis of fetal sex and sex chromosome aberrations (Turners, Klinefelters, Triple X/XXX and XYY syndromes). Analysis of microdeletion 22q11.2 DiGeorge syndrome is available as an option for additional price.
NIPT Harmony is a safe test that can detect 99% of chromosome aberrations, as the test analyzes the fetal DNA found in small amounts in the pregnant woman during pregnancy.
Blodprovet utförs av en sjuksköterska på vår mottagning i Uppsala och kommer sedan att analyseras under 10 dagar på Life Genomics laboratorium i Göteborg.
