The Triple Marker test is a second-trimester prenatal screening test performed between the 14th and 22nd week of pregnancy (ideally 15-20 weeks) to assess the risk of neural tube defects and chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome and Trisomy 18, in the fetusIt measures levels of three substances in the mother’s blood: Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), and Estriol (uE3). The results, combined with the mother’s age and ultrasound data, are used to calculate the risk for these conditions. A high-risk result indicates the need for further, more invasive, diagnostic tests to confirm the findings. 

What the Test Measures

The test analyzes three substances in the mother’s blood: 

Why It’s Performed
  • Risk Assessment: To determine the probability of certain genetic and developmental issues. 
  • Screening for:
    • Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21) 
    • Edward’s Syndrome (Trisomy 18) 
    • Open Neural Tube Defects 
When It’s Performed
  • Window: Between 14 and 22 weeks of pregnancy. 
  • Ideal Timing: The optimal period for a combined risk assessment is between 15 and 20 weeks. 
What to Expect
  1. Blood Sample: A blood sample is collected from the mother. 
  2. Risk Calculation: The results are combined with factors like maternal age, weight, and ethnicity to provide a risk assessment. 
  3. Further Steps:
    • Low-risk result: Provides reassurance that the baby is unlikely to have these conditions. 
    • High-risk result: Does not mean the baby has the condition but signifies the need for a more definitive test, such as an amniocentesis.
