- Preterm labor before 37 weeks gestation (with or
without ruptured membranes).
- Term rupture of membranes >18 hrs.
risk factors for GBS
- Unexplained, mild fever during labour.

, Using maternal serum is an effective, noninvasive
method for identifying fetal risk for aneuploidy
(trisomies 13, 18, and 21) and neural tube defects
- A low maternal serum PAPP-A, at 11 to 13 weeks of
gestation, is associated with stillbirth, infant death,
marker screening test preterm birth, preeclampsia, and chromosomal
abnormalities
- Most screening tests are performed between 15 and
22 weeks of gestation (16 to 18 weeks is ideal), except
for the cffDNA test which can be performed around 9
