Integrated screen results – parking $2 CAD

Here are the numbers:

Open Spina Bifida 1:9170

Down Syndrome 1:4520 (less than that of a 15 years old)
Risk based on maternal age alone 1:719

Trisomy 18 1:77400

My OB said that because the 18 weeks detailed ultrasound was perfectly normal, we could add another “0” to all numbers. She strongly recommended not doing Amniocentesis.

We decided not to pursue amniocentesis any further since the risk for Down Syndrome seems to be very low.
