New DNA test aims to solve mysteries of severe fetal malformations

NCT ID NCT02512354

Summary

This study tested whether a new, advanced DNA test could find the cause when a fetus has multiple serious malformations and standard exams fail. Researchers performed this test on 100 fetuses with at least two malformations, along with blood samples from both parents, to see if it provided answers where other methods could not. The goal was to see if this technology could improve diagnosis for families facing these difficult and unexplained pregnancies.
