E13. Unpacking RANZCOG’s Clinical Guideline for Prenatal Screening for Fetal Anomalies (video)

In this episode of Talking O&G: A RANZCOG Podcast, host A/Prof Scott White is joined by Professor Lisa Hui and Dr Lilian Downie to unpack RANZCOG’s Clinical Guideline for Prenatal Screening for Fetal Structural Anomalies and Chromosome Conditions (C-Obs 35). This updated guideline combines four previous statements to consolidate recommendations, acknowledging the interrelatedness of genetics and structural anomalies.   Professor Hui and Dr Downie are expert clinicians who were involved in the development of the new guideline. They discuss non-invasive perinatal testing (NIPT), chorionic villus sampling (CVS), changes in recommendations for structural ultrasounds, equity and access issues, pre- and post-test counselling, and more.   Professor Hui and Dr Downie emphasise that all pregnant people should be offered prenatal screening, regardless of their demographic or any assumptions about their attitude to screening.   🔗 Resources mentioned in this episode:  Screening and diagnosis of fetal structural anomalies and chromosome conditions (C-Obs 35)   📌 RANZCOG members can submit CPD at: https://shorturl.at/iq733   💬 If you found this episode valuable, please rate, review, subscribe, and share it with your colleagues.  RANZCOG acknowledges the need for more inclusive terminology for gender diversity.
