Maternal serum screening (MSS) measures three serum markers: alpha-fetoprotein, human chorionic gonadotropin, and unconjugated estriol, from which the risk of fetal Down syndrome or open neural tube defect is calculated. Initially, 8% of women will have positive results. I present a protocol for investigating these women. Family physicians should be informed about MSS so they can give their patients information and guidance.
母血清筛查（MSS）检测三种血清标志物：甲胎蛋白、人绒毛膜促性腺激素和未结合雌三醇，据此计算胎儿患唐氏综合征或开放性神经管缺陷的风险。最初，8%的女性会有阳性结果。我提出了一个针对这些女性的调查方案。家庭医生应了解母血清筛查，以便他们能够为患者提供信息和指导。
