Before taking the test, you must first have an ultrasound scan (not included) to confirm that you are more than 10 weeks pregnant, ensuring that no anomalies affect the test results and cause inaccuracies.

Once the exact stage of pregnancy has been confirmed, the team of geneticists at Megalab in Gijón will take a blood sample from you.

• After the blood sample has been collected, it will be sent to the laboratory for analysis, and you will then wait to receive your results and the telephone consultation with the Megalab geneticist.
• As soon as the DNA analysis results are ready, you will have a telephone consultation with the geneticist to discuss and understand the conclusions.

The team of geneticists at Megalab in Gijón will explain how to access your results:

1. You will be given an access code to log in to your private area.
2. From there, you can check the status of your results report.
3. If the results are not yet available, they will appear as “pending.”
4. Finally, you will be provided with the telephone number of the Laboratorio Eurofins - Sanatorio Covadonga, where you had the test performed, in case you have any questions while waiting for your results.

The results of the Trisomy 21 Test will be available within 3–6 working days. In addition, it is not necessary to fast before taking the test.

After the blood sample is taken and analysed, the results shown in the report may indicate the following:

• High risk. The probability that the baby has a chromosomal alteration during pregnancy is high. In these cases, additional tests during pregnancy or a postnatal evaluation are recommended.
• Low risk. The probability of chromosomal alterations is low. Therefore, routine prenatal care would continue as normal.

The result of the T21 prenatal test is expressed as a risk percentage, ranging from 0.01% to 99%.

• No result. Occasionally, there may not be enough foetal cells in the maternal blood sample (in fewer than 5% of cases). The test can always be repeated, and in about half of these cases, a result is obtained on the second attempt at no additional cost.

For T21 tests, the rate of inconclusive results is below 1%.
