Madam l would suggest you should go for the test advised.It will show whether your child has got any birth defects.If detected on time you can help the doctor to decide what should be done next.lt is worth spending a few rupees now rather than repent later.Just go ahead and get the tests done.l will pray your reports come normal.

Hello,
The quadruple screen blood test is done to confirm whether the baby is having any genetic birth defects like down syndrome and neural birth defects. If you are diabetic, over aged or have history of genetic defects then it is a must have for you.
