At Check Up Medicus, we offer a full range of tests and screenings for pregnant women and their developing babies throughout pregnancy. These tests are designed to exclude possible conditions and developmental abnormalities in the fetus or to diagnose them early. The type of tests vary depending on the trimester of pregnancy.
In the first trimester, we begin with assessing the mother’s gestational age, which is determined based on the last menstrual period. This is crucial for establishing the correct timeline of the pregnancy. Additionally, an ultrasound is performed to determine the number of fetuses, check the heartbeat, and assess basic anatomical structures.
During the second trimester, the focus shifts to evaluating the fetus’s developmental progress and identifying potential abnormalities. Ultrasound remains a primary tool to measure fetal dimensions, the amount of amniotic fluid, and the placenta’s position. Blood tests are also conducted to identify biochemical risk markers, such as evaluating PAPP-A proteins and chorionic gonadotropin structure.
The third trimester is a critical phase where we concentrate on monitoring fetal growth, assessing the amniotic fluid environment, and evaluating the labor system’s readiness. In addition to ultrasound, assessments of amniotic fluid volume and fetal heart rate checks are performed to detect any abnormalities.
Beyond these specific tests, expectant mothers undergo laboratory blood tests to determine blood type and RH factor, screen for stereotypical antibodies, and check for viral infections. These screenings enable the prevention or immediate management of potential health issues for both mother and baby.
In the realm of modern medicine, prenatal screening is an essential tool to ensure the health of the mother and fetus, providing detailed information and opportunities for intervention if necessary.
Moreover, prenatal screening also serves as an opportunity to educate and inform future parents about healthy pregnancy practices, nutrition, baby care, and other important topics. This comprehensive approach not only enhances the parental experience but also improves the quality of care for both mother and newborn, fostering a healthy and nurturing environment for the child’s development.
