OBJECTIVE: To evaluate to what extent couples carrying a balanced structural chromosome abnormality follow up the advice to opt for invasive prenatal diagnosis (PND) in subsequent pregnancies.
DESIGN: Index-control study.
SETTING: Six centers for Clinical Genetics in The Netherlands.
PATIENT(S): Couples referred for chromosome analysis after recurrent miscarriage between 1992 and 2001 and with at least one pregnancy after disclosure; 239 carrier couples and 389 noncarrier couples.
INTERVENTION(S): Questionnaire, medical record checking.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Uptake of invasive PND.
RESULT(S): Only 53 of 239 (22%) carrier couples underwent a PND procedure (CVS or amniocentesis) in all subsequent pregnancies. A relatively high number, 105 (44%) carrier couples, refrained from PND in all subsequent pregnancies. More carrier couples with maternal age >or=36 years (20/33 = 61%) refrained from PND, compared with carrier couples with maternal age <36 years (85/206 = 41%). In women >or=36 years, an equal proportion of carrier and noncarrier couples refrained from PND (61% vs. 54%).
CONCLUSION(S): The advice to opt for invasive PND in carrier couples is poorly followed, especially in carrier couples with maternal age >or=36 years. The motivations of carrier couples to opt for or refrain from invasive PND procedures should be the topic for further research to optimize clinical care and informative decision making.
