Description

**Veritas NIPT Extended: Comprehensive Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing for Genetic Insights**

The Veritas NIPT Extended is a cutting-edge non-invasive prenatal test designed to provide expectant parents with detailed genetic information about their baby. Using advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, this test analyzes maternal blood to screen for chromosomal abnormalities, microdeletions, and other genetic conditions. With a quick turnaround time of 10 days, the Veritas NIPT Extended offers peace of mind and actionable insights during pregnancy.

### Why You Need This Test
The Veritas NIPT Extended is essential for expectant parents seeking a deeper understanding of their baby’s genetic health. This test screens for a wide range of chromosomal abnormalities, including trisomies like Down syndrome (Trisomy 21), Edwards syndrome (Trisomy 18), and Patau syndrome (Trisomy 13). It also detects microdeletions and other rare genetic conditions that may impact the baby’s development. Early detection of these conditions allows parents and healthcare providers to make informed decisions about prenatal care, delivery planning, and potential interventions.

This test is particularly valuable for women with high-risk pregnancies, such as those over the age of 35, those with a family history of genetic disorders, or those who have had abnormal results from other prenatal screenings. By providing a non-invasive alternative to traditional diagnostic methods like amniocentesis, the Veritas NIPT Extended minimizes risks to both the mother and baby while delivering highly accurate results.

### Symptoms That Indicate This Test
The Veritas NIPT Extended is recommended in the following scenarios:
– Advanced maternal age (35 years or older).
– Abnormal results from first-trimester or second-trimester prenatal screenings.
– Family history of chromosomal abnormalities or genetic disorders.
– Previous pregnancy affected by a chromosomal condition.
– Concerns about the baby’s genetic health based on ultrasound findings.
– Desire for comprehensive genetic screening during pregnancy.

### Natural Production
The Veritas NIPT Extended works by analyzing cell-free fetal DNA (cfDNA) present in the mother’s bloodstream. During pregnancy, the placenta releases small fragments of the baby’s DNA into the maternal blood. These fragments can be isolated and studied to detect genetic abnormalities. Factors such as maternal age, gestational age, and placental health can influence the levels of cfDNA, making this test a reliable and non-invasive method for prenatal genetic screening.

### What Happens If Untreated
Ignoring potential chromosomal abnormalities or genetic conditions during pregnancy can lead to significant health challenges for the baby and emotional stress for the parents. Conditions like Down syndrome, Edwards syndrome, and Patau syndrome can result in developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, and severe health complications. Early detection through the Veritas NIPT Extended allows parents to prepare for the baby’s needs, explore treatment options, and access specialized care if necessary. Without this test, parents may miss the opportunity to make informed decisions about their pregnancy and the baby’s future.

### How to Prepare for the Test
The Veritas NIPT Extended requires no special preparation. Since it is a simple blood test, you do not need to fast or avoid any medications beforehand. However, it is recommended to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss any specific concerns or questions you may have about the test.
