Routine antenatal tests

R M Rome. Aust Fam Physician. 1978 Sep.

Abstract

Numerous tests have been proposed in recent years to screen the antenatal population for various diseases which might contribute to perinatal and even maternal morbidity and mortality. Screening tests of any kind are currently the centre of controversy as measures are being strenuously taken to contain health costs. This paper critically examines twelve such screening tests.
