Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the α-Fetoprotein or AFP-Fluid test in Dakor to measure the levels of AFP in the amniotic fluid of pregnant women 

Overview of AFP-Fluid Test

Alpha fetoprotein (AFP) is a protein made by the developing foetus in the mother’s womb. Higher or lower than normal levels of this protein may be an indication of neural tube defects, or other abnormalities like congenital kidney disease, down’s syndrome, or other forms of fetal distress

Book an AFP-fluid test near you to diagnose any problems with your developing foetus. For accurate and reliable test results, you can rely on Sterling Accuris Diagnostics for an AFP-fluid test in   Dakor .  

Why And When Is An AFP Fluid Test Done?

AFP is made by a developing foetus in pregnant women. If a foetus has an open neural tube defect, then AFP directly leaks into the amniotic fluid, whose levels can be assessed by this test. An AFP test can also measure the risk of birth defects in a foetus. 

A doctor may order an AFP-fluid test if a pregnant woman has:  

  • A family history of genetic defects.  
  • Diabetes
  • Used drugs that can pose risk to a developing foetus. 
  • 35 years or older

An AFP-fluid test is also done:

  • if blood tests are abnormal
  • If an ultrasound showed a possibility of birth defect

For reliable and error-free test results, you can head to Sterling Accuris Diagnostics for an AFP-Fluid test in   Dakor .

AFP-Fluid Test: Main Highlights 

AFP-fluid test results are helpful in determining how much AFP is produced by the fetus in pregnant women. 

  • Instructions: Fasting is not required
  • Recommended for: Pregnant females between 14 to 16 weeks gestation
  • Recommended Age: 18 Years or more 
  • Sample type for test: Body fluid (peritoneal)

How To Interpret The AFP-Fluid Test Report

Normal level of AFP in non-pregnant woman: 0.20 ng/mL

Level of AFP between 10-20 weeks: 10-150 ng/mL

Level of AFP at 32 weeks gestation: 250 ng/mL

Elevated levels of AFP are seen if the foetus has birth defects like an open neural tube or other abnormalities, which cause leakage of AFP into the amniotic fluid.

Causes of high levels of AFP in fluid:

  • Open neural tube defect
  • Gastroschisis
  • Congenital kidney disease
  • Threatened abortion
  • Prematurity
  • Fetal death
