In order to test for certain conditions and birth defects, your provider may recommend performing amniocentesis. During this procedure, the provider draws the fluid that surrounds your baby in order to check on your baby.
The fluid contains lots of great substances to help your little one grow and develop, but it also contains some cells shed by your baby during its development. Tests on these cells can uncover many conditions and provide you with a clearer picture of your baby’s health.
UAMS Health providers care for a broad range of conditions, some of which may not be listed below.
Note that every provider listed below may not perform or prescribe Amniocentesis for all conditions related to it. Review each provider for availability.
Note that Amniocentesis may not be performed at every location listed below. The list may include locations where the treatment plan is developed during and after a patient visit.
