OBJECTIVE: To investigate the differences in costs and outcomes of Down syndrome screening using data from the First and Second Trimester Evaluation of Risk (FASTER) Trial. METHODS: Seven possible screening options for Down syndrome were compared: 1) Triple Screen—maternal serum alpha fetoprotein, estriol, and hCG; 2) Quad—maternal serum alpha fetoprotein, estriol, hCG, and Inhibin A; 3) Combined First—nuchal translucency, pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A), free &bgr;-hCG; 4… CONTINUE READING
