Screening Tests for You and Your Baby | NHS
Introduction to Screening Tests
Screening tests are an essential part of prenatal and postnatal care, aimed at detecting any potential health issues early on. In the United Kingdom, the National Health Service (NHS) provides a range of screening tests to ensure the well-being of both mother and baby. These tests help in identifying conditions that might require further diagnostic tests or treatments.Prenatal Screening Tests
During pregnancy, several screening tests are offered to monitor the health of both the mother and the developing baby. Common prenatal screening tests include:- Blood Tests: These are performed to determine the mother's blood type, screen for infections like HIV, hepatitis B, and syphilis, and check for conditions such as anemia.
- Ultrasound Scans: These scans monitor the baby's development and help detect any physical abnormalities. The 12-week and 20-week scans are particularly crucial.
- Combined Screening: This combines a blood test and an ultrasound scan to assess the risk of the baby having Down's syndrome, Edwards' syndrome, or Patau's syndrome.
Newborn Screening Tests
After birth, your baby will be offered several screening tests to identify any health problems early. These include:- Newborn Hearing Screen: This test checks your baby's hearing to detect any early signs of hearing impairment, ensuring timely intervention if needed.
- Newborn Blood Spot Test: Also known as the heel prick test, this involves taking a small sample of your baby's blood to screen for nine rare but serious conditions, including cystic fibrosis and sickle cell disease.
- Physical Examination: A thorough physical check is performed within 72 hours of birth to look for obvious signs of disorders, particularly focusing on the eyes, heart, hips, and testes in boys.
Why Screening Tests Matter
Early detection via screening tests enables timely medical intervention, improving health outcomes for both mothers and babies. It provides peace of mind and helps healthcare professionals manage and treat conditions before they become serious. By participating in these screening programs, parents can ensure that their babies have the best start in life.Conclusion
The NHS offers comprehensive screening tests for expectant mothers and newborns, catering to the health and well-being of both. Understanding these tests, their importance, and what they involve can help parents make informed decisions about their prenatal and postnatal care. For more detailed information or specific concerns, always consult your midwife or healthcare provider.Screening Tests for You and Your Baby | NHS

Screening tests help check the health of the baby and the parent. They can find out if there might be any problems early on. This way, doctors and nurses can help. There are different tests during pregnancy. Some tests are for everyone, and some are for certain people. It is good to talk to the doctor about which tests are right for you.
Helpful things: Try asking your doctor questions about the tests. You can also write down what the doctor says to help you remember. You can ask someone you trust to go with you to the appointment.
Screening tests during pregnancy help check if you and your baby are healthy. These tests can find any problems early. This helps you make good choices about your care.
When do you get the first health check-ups in pregnancy?
When you are going to have a baby, doctors do some tests to make sure you and the baby are healthy. These tests are called check-ups.
The first check-ups usually happen in the first few months. They help to find out if everything is okay.
If you have any questions, you can talk to your doctor. It's important to go to all your check-ups to take care of you and your baby.
If reading is hard, you can use a screen reader or ask someone to read with you. It's okay to ask for help.
The first check-ups for the baby usually happen when you are 10 to 14 weeks pregnant. These check-ups look for three things: Down's syndrome, Edwards' syndrome, and Patau's syndrome.
What Do Doctors Look For in the Combined Test?
The combined test is a check-up for pregnant women. Doctors want to make sure the baby is healthy. They look for things like:
- If the baby has a higher chance of Down syndrome, which is a condition that makes it hard to learn.
- If the baby might have something wrong with their heart.
- If there are any other problems the baby might have when they are born.
Doctors use the combined test to help learn more about the baby's health. If you need help understanding, ask a doctor or nurse to explain. You can also bring a family member or friend when talking to the doctor. They can help you remember or understand what the doctor says.
The test checks for three syndromes:
1. Down's syndrome (extra chromosome 21)
2. Edwards' syndrome (extra chromosome 18)
3. Patau's syndrome (extra chromosome 13)
If you find this hard to understand, you can use tools like text-to-speech, speak with someone, or draw pictures to help explain it.
What happens in the combined test?
The combined test has two parts. First, there is a blood test for the mother. Then, there is an ultrasound scan. This scan checks how much fluid is behind the baby's neck. This is called nuchal translucency.
If more help is needed, using pictures, simple words, and apps that read stories aloud can be useful tools.
Do you have to do screening tests?
No, you do not have to take screening tests. These tests can give you information about your baby's health. But you can choose if you want the tests or not.
What if my test says I might have a health problem?
If your test shows you might have a health problem, don’t worry. There are people who can help: - Talk to a doctor to find out more. - Ask questions so you understand better. It can be helpful to bring someone with you to the doctor. They can help you remember what the doctor says. You can also write down your questions before you go.

What is the difference between a screening test and a diagnostic test?

Are there any dangers with health tests?
Health tests help find problems. But sometimes, they can have risks. Risks mean things that might go wrong.

If you find reading hard, there are tools that can help. You can try using audiobooks or asking someone to read with you. It's also helpful to take breaks and read in a quiet place.
Can I say no to a screening test?
Yes, you can say no to any health tests. Your choice will be respected. You can talk about any worries with your doctor.
What help can I get if my baby is sick?

- Doctors and nurses can give advice.
- Family or friends can support you.
- Parent groups can help you talk to others.
