Combined screening test - intermediate risk

[SmilingThroughIt]

Please can anyone advise. I have had my 12 week tests done and it has come back as intermediate risk. The nuchal fold measured at 2.4. I am seeing my doctor tomorrow to discuss further but in the mean time I'm not sure what this means. I dont know the exact ratio till I see the doctor but does anyone know what this could mean.

I have never heard of intermediate risk. Only low risk or high risk. So I guess intermediate might mean elevated risk but not enough to be high?

2.4mm is way within the normal range for NF measurement, did they tell you what else had made them think there was a higher risk?

We were told we were high risk because of a 2.9mm measurement (alsp within the normal range but the high end of normal) and low papp a hormone.
Paid for a Harmony test and everything came back as 1 in 10,000 vs the 1 in 85 we got from the combined screening.
1 in 10,000 is their way of saying everything is fine on the Harmony test - they are 99% accurate, I believe the combined screening is something like 85%.
No concerns at the 20 week scan or at follow up growth scans (28 and 36 weeks).

I know this is a stressful time but thought my story might help ease your worries slightly while you wait.

Did they look at the nose bridge as well as the nuchal transparency?

Thank you both. I went in for a scan today and got my results. The doctor said that the nose is measuring 4.5.
Does anyone know how to interpret these stats. I'm not able to upload a picture for some reason

I'm not sure how to interpret that myself, however, I know our hospital has a couple of genetics counsellors that can really break down screening results and talk to parents about what they could mean. Could you ask one of the, or somebody in an equivalent position, to ring you?

They should be doing so anyway to let you know of any other test options that are open to you if you wanted to do anything else.
