Fetal Echocardiogram performs a detailed scan of the fetus’ heart. The scan is used to detect any abnormalities of the heart in the fetus and to suggest any necessary precautions. The scan is performed during 18 to 20 weeks of pregnancy but thanks to the latest advancements and modern technology, few major abnormalities of the heart can be detected even at a 12-weeks scan.
Genetic Counselling is usually recommended for pregnant women with a family or medical history of genetic issues to look for an occurrence or recurrence of the same. It helps to understand the natural history and inheritance pattern after which further testing, management and research can be done as required. Counselling helps the parents-to-be to understand the risks involved, and prepare mentally, physically and emotionally. It also provides support to help the family make necessary adjustments and also understand a possible recurrence.
