What is a Quad Screening with PLGF Test in Bangalore ?

Quad Screening with PLGF measures four pregnancy-related proteins plus placental growth factor in the mother's blood. The proteins are AFP, hCG, estriol, and inhibin A. PlGF gives additional information about placental health. These markers help assess risk for fetal chromosomal abnormalities like Down syndrome, neural tube defects, and placental problems such as preeclampsia or growth restriction. Doctors use the screen as a risk assessment tool in the second trimester. It is not diagnostic. Results are combined with maternal age and ultrasound findings. If risk is high, doctors may offer follow-up testing like detailed ultrasound or diagnostic tests such as amniocentesis.

Quad Screening with PLGF Test Preparation in Bangalore

No special preparation is required.

Quad Screening with PLGF Test Parameters in Bangalore

The Quad Screening with PLGF test evaluates various parameters related to the different components. Here are the main parameters that are checked in the test:

  • AFP
  • hCG
  • Unconjugated Estriol (uE3)
  • Inhibin A
  • Placental Growth Factor (PlGF)

Why Take a Quad Screening with PLGF Test in Bangalore ?

Quad Screening with PLGF is a second-trimester prenatal screening panel used during routine pregnancy care or after an abnormal ultrasound. It helps estimate risk for chromosomal disorders, neural tube defects, and placental dysfunction including preeclampsia and growth restriction. Abnormal results can come from incorrect dating, multiple pregnancy, maternal conditions, or true fetal/placental problems. A family history of chromosomal anomalies or prior preeclampsia may make this screening especially important.

What is the quad screen test for preeclampsia in Bangalore?plus

The quad screen is a second‑trimester maternal blood test that measures four substances—AFP, hCG, unconjugated estriol and inhibin A. It’s primarily used to screen for chromosomal and neural‑tube issues, but abnormal levels can also suggest placental dysfunction and a higher risk of preeclampsia. It’s a risk assessment, not diagnostic; abnormal results prompt closer monitoring and further evaluation.

What is included in the quad screening in Bangalore?plus

The quad screen is a second‑trimester maternal blood test measuring four substances: alpha‑fetoprotein (AFP), human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), unconjugated estriol (uE3), and inhibin A. Performed generally between 15–20 weeks’ gestation, results are combined with maternal and gestational age to estimate risks for neural tube defects, Down syndrome (trisomy 21), and trisomy 18.

What is a PlGF blood test in Bangalore?plus

A PlGF blood test measures placental growth factor — a protein produced by the placenta — in maternal blood. Low PlGF (or a raised sFlt‑1/PlGF ratio) indicates placental dysfunction and helps diagnose or predict preeclampsia. It aids clinical decisions on monitoring, treatment, and timing of delivery in pregnant women, especially after 20 weeks or when hypertension or related symptoms occur.

What is normal PlGF in pregnancy in Bangalore?plus

Placental growth factor (PlGF) normally rises after conception, peaking in the late second–early third trimester. Typical mid-pregnancy concentrations are roughly 100–600 pg/mL, varying by gestational age and assay. Levels below about 100 pg/mL (especially before 35 weeks) are considered low and raise concern for placental dysfunction or pre-eclampsia; interpretation should use gestation-specific reference ranges.

What happens if my quad screen is positive in Bangalore?plus

A positive quad screen means your pregnancy is at higher-than-average risk for conditions like Down syndrome, trisomy 18, or neural tube defects — it’s not a diagnosis. Next steps usually include detailed ultrasound to confirm dates and anatomy, noninvasive cell‑free DNA screening or genetic counseling, and, if desired, diagnostic testing (CVS or amniocentesis) to confirm any abnormality. Discuss options with your provider.

Which two tests confirm the diagnosis of preeclampsia in Bangalore?plus

The diagnosis of preeclampsia is confirmed by two tests: (1) repeated blood‑pressure measurements showing new hypertension (≥140/90 mmHg after 20 weeks’ gestation) and (2) testing for proteinuria — ideally a urine protein/creatinine ratio ≥30 mg/mmol or a 24‑hour urine protein ≥300 mg. If proteinuria is absent, new organ dysfunction (abnormal platelets, creatinine or liver enzymes) can substitute.
