This study reports on a survey of 2,209 women age 25-45; most were married. Respondents were asked about their reproductive plans and whether prenatal reassurance might influence their reproductive intentions. For almost two-thirds of the age 35-45 respondents, either the woman or her husband had already chosen sterilization; of those able to bear children, but with uncertain plans, 25 per cent of 35-39 year olds and 12.8 per cent of 40-45 year olds indicated an increased willingness to have children if they were reassured that their baby had none of the birth defects detectable by amniocentesis.
本研究报告了一项针对2209名年龄在25至45岁之间女性的调查；其中大多数已婚。受访者被问及她们的生育计划，以及产前安心措施是否可能影响她们的生育意愿。在35至45岁的受访者中，近三分之二的女性或其丈夫已经选择了绝育；在那些有生育能力但计划不确定的人中，35至39岁的受访者中有25%，40至45岁的受访者中有12.8%表示，如果能安心得知她们的宝宝没有羊膜穿刺术可检测出的出生缺陷，她们生育孩子的意愿会增强。
