This supplement is designed to provide ObGyn clinicians with current information on the cell-free DNA screening test options available for fetal chromosomal abnormalities. These screening tests are commonly referred to as Noninvasive Prenatal Screening (NIPS). In August 2020, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) issued a Practice Bulletin entitled “Screening for Fetal Chromosomal Abnormalities” (PB #226). This Practice Bulletin included expanded information regarding the use of NIPS in all patients regardless of maternal age or baseline risk. It also identified NIPS as the most sensitive and specific test for screening for the most common aneuploidies. The authors of this supplement provide additional information on the technology, performance, and clinical utilization of NIPS testing.
