TY - JOUR T1 - Women’s choices in non-invasive prenatal testing for aneuploidy screening: results from a single centre prior to introduction in England JF - Archives of Disease in Childhood JO - Arch Dis Child SP - 47 LP - 52 DO - 10.1136/archdischild-2019-317031 VL - 105 IS - 1 AU - Adalina Sacco AU - Hilary Hewitt AU - Pranav Pandya Y1 - 2020/01/01 UR - http://adc.bmj.com/content/105/1/47.abstract N2 - Objective To evaluate patient choices and uptake of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for aneuploidy screening offered in a contingency model as part of routine care.Method We retrospectively reviewed data for all women with a singleton pregnancy attending for routine first trimester screening over an 18-month period. Women with a ‘high-chance’ of trisomy 21, 18 or 13 (≥1:150) were offered the choice of no further testing, NIPT or invasive testing, in line with the screening pathway recommended by the UK National Screening Committee.Results Of 9342 women attending for a first trimester ultrasound scan, 7939 women were included in this study. Of these, 352 had a high-chance screening result for trisomy 21, and 291 (82.7%) opted for NIPT. The proportion of women opting for NIPT decreased as the chance of trisomy 21 increased: uptake was 93.2%, 90.0%, 77.1% and 47.2% for women with a chance of 1:100–150, 1:50–99, 1:10–49 and >1:10, respectively. 516 women (5.5%) accessed primary NIPT screening in the private sector, and 638 women (6.8%) declined any aneuploidy screening or testing.Conclusion Implementation of NIPT testing in a contingency model has a high uptake in a non-research National Health Service setting; the rate of uptake is related to the combined test risk result.
