The Triple Marker Test is a maternal blood screening test carried out during the second trimester of pregnancy, typically between 15 to 20 weeks. It measures the levels of three important substances in the mother’s blood:
- Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)
- Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG)
- Unconjugated Estriol (uE3)
These markers help evaluate the risk of chromosomal abnormalities and neural tube defects in the fetus. It is a non-invasive screening test and does not pose any risk to the mother or baby.
The purpose of this test is to:
- Assess the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus
- Screen for Down syndrome (Trisomy 21)
- Detect risk of Edwards syndrome (Trisomy 18)
- Evaluate the likelihood of neural tube defects
- Support early decision-making in prenatal care
