Results are presented from a study of the experiences of families in which mothers utilized prenatal diagnostic testing. Responses indicate that many parents are discussing prenatal testing even with their very young children. Potentially stressful areas for children were seen in their expressed concerns about possibilities of detecting a defect, harm to the mother, and abortion. Preschool age children seemed especially vulnerable to becoming frightened by fantasies about the medical procedures. Recommendations are made for increased social work involvement in screening for and delivering services to families and children who encounter difficulties with the prenatal testing experience.
研究呈现了母亲进行产前诊断检测的家庭的经历。回应表明，许多父母甚至在和年幼的孩子讨论产前检测。孩子们表达出的对检测出缺陷的可能性、对母亲的伤害以及流产的担忧，被视为对他们有潜在压力的方面。学龄前儿童似乎尤其容易因对医疗程序的幻想而受到惊吓。建议增加社会工作在筛查以及为在产前检测经历中遇到困难的家庭和儿童提供服务方面的参与度。
