For female friends who are pregnant or have been pregnant, they may all know about amniocentesis. This is a method mainly used to check whether the baby in the belly is healthy, but it has certain risks. So if you want to have this examination, expectant mothers must know what to do if there are high risks in amniocentesis? 1. Amniocentesis has certain risks, and the possibility of risk is between 0.5% and 1.5%. Because it is a manual operation, it cannot be 100% safe. But now that amniocentesis has become popular, the technical equipment has also improved a lot. Now the puncture is basically done under the guidance of B-ultrasound, so doctors can basically accurately avoid the placenta and absorb the amniotic fluid. If pregnant women are worried, they can go to a large hospital and find a skilled doctor to perform amniocentesis. 2. After amniocentesis, about 2 to 3% of pregnant women will experience side effects, such as vaginal bleeding, amniotic fluid leakage, mild uterine contractions, etc. But these can be discovered in time and solved in time by going to the hospital. If the pregnant woman follows the correct procedure for amniocentesis and is very careful to pay attention to some taboos before and after the operation, there will be no side effects. 3. According to analysis and investigation, about 0.3% to 0.5% of pregnant women will experience spontaneous abortion after amniocentesis, and about 0.5% of pregnant women will experience amnionitis, rupture of fetal membranes and miscarriage. Moreover, according to research reports, the mortality rate of a single baby undergoing amniocentesis is 0.6%, while the mortality rate of twins undergoing amniocentesis is 2.7%. So although the probability is very small, pregnant women should still pay more attention and try not to do it if possible. 4. Many people do amniocentesis for Down syndrome screening, but amniocentesis cannot accurately indicate whether the fetus will be born with Down syndrome or not. It can only help determine the chance of the fetus having Down syndrome. Although amniocentesis can detect whether the fetus has a genetic disease, the fetus has already developed to 16 to 20 weeks when amniocentesis is performed. Even if a genetic disease is detected, it is difficult for the pregnant mother to decide whether to abandon the child. |
