Prevention programmes
FMF research - NFZ
We run a Prenatal Screening Programme according to FMF standard under the contract of the National Health Fund. Non-invasive tests are performed free of charge - ultrasound in combination with biochemical tests. In case of indications resulting from a specific risk, there is a possibility of an invasive diagnostics (amniocentesis with genetic testing of fluid and genetic counseling).
The tests can be performed in insured persons with a referral with a specific criterion to the Prenatal Screening Programme:
- The patient must have a referral from a gynaecologist. Referrals from a private gynaecologist's surgery are also accepted.
- With the result, i.e. the analysis of the risk of genetic defects, the patient should go to the doctor in charge of the pregnancy.
- The number of tests is limited in accordance with the contract concluded with the National Health Fund.
Criteria for inclusion in the programme:
- Age over 35
- A previous pregnancy with a chromosomal aberration of the fetus or baby
- Detection of structural chromosome aberrations in the pregnant woman or father
- Identifying a significantly higher risk of having a child affected by a monogenetic or multifactorial condition
- Abnormal ultrasound or biochemical findings during pregnancy indicating an increased risk of chromosomal aberration or fetal malformation
In the first trimester of pregnancy:
- Prenatal ultrasound 11-13 (+6 days) week of pregnancy
- Double test (PAPP-A, beta-hCG)
Genetic counselling includes medical history taking into account the genetic history, evaluation and interpretation of the results of the tests performed and a decision on further procedure (in the case of medical indications, referral for invasive tests after the patient's consent to their performance)
Preparation:
For ultrasound examinations in the first trimester of pregnancy (11-14 weeks) the patient should have a filled bladder. It is not necessary to be fasting for the blood laboratory test.
In the second trimester of pregnancy:
- Prenatal ultrasound 18-23 weeks of pregnancy
