[Ji Shi · Say] The 18th "China Prevention Defect Day" | Prevention and treatment of birth defects Promote fertility and health

September 12 this year is the 18th "China Prevention Flax Day". The National Health and Health Commission recently issued a notice that the theme of this year's event was "prevention and treatment of defects to promote fertility and health." The defect of birth can be said to be not only related to children's survival and quality of life, but also directly related to family harmony and social development. So, what are the causes of birth defects? How to avoid the occurrence of birth defects? Take a look.

The defect of birth, also known as innate abnormalities, refers to abnormalities, structures, functions, metabolism and other aspects of the development of the child in the mother's uterus before birth. Related data show that the incidence of birth defects in my country is about 5.6%, and 900,000 newly born defects are added each year. On average, 1.7 birth defects are reduced per minute. At present, diseases with high incidence in China are congenital heart disease, multi -finger (toe), cleft lip and palate, and urinary tract cracks. There are many reasons for birth defects, including genetic factors, environmental factors, biological factors, and so on.

Yu Mei, Deputy Director of the Preparatory Diagnosis Center of Shijiazhuang Maternity Hospital:

The most common in work is chromosomal disease. Chromosome (disease) is more common to be balanced, or Robertson is prone. Because these patients are more distressed, the most common clinical manifestations may be recurrence of abortion after these diseases. Then at this time, you may find that one of the husband and wife may have a vulnerable position of chromosomes. If this situation does not rely on naturally pregnant, we must suggest that she can do three generations of test tubes, that is, the prenatal diagnosis before the implantation. Essence If we are pregnant naturally, we also suggest that she is 18 weeks to 22 weeks of pregnancy. We also give her a amniotic fluid puncture and then prenatal diagnosis.

In the afternoon of the same day, a patient who had repeatedly miscarriated due to chromosomal abnormalities in Yu Mei was a prenatal diagnosis technology to help this family have two lively and lovely children.

Yu Mei, Deputy Director of the Preparatory Diagnosis Center of Shijiazhuang Maternity Hospital:

The prenatal diagnosis of her first child was performed by the first child, and the (third generation) test tube. After the second time I was pregnant, I was pregnant unexpectedly. Through our prenatal diagnosis, we gave her amniotic fluid puncture. The prenatal diagnosis she did this time was a completely normal child, which is equivalent to we put this (chromosomal balance) Easy position is equivalent to the end of her second child. She will not have to have prenatal diagnosis in the future. This is also a great progress to reduce our birth defects.

To prevent and reduce the occurrence of birth defects, ensuring the quality of the population from the source is the cornerstone of the health of the whole people. In order to reduce the occurrence of birth defects, our country has implemented a measure of "three prevention of birth defect intervention".

Yu Mei, deputy chief physician of the prenatal diagnosis center of Shijiazhuang Maternity Hospital:

The first -level prevention is to consult before pregnancy before pregnancy. Such chromosomal diseases and monocular diseases like this, such as having an abnormal child, brought this child, and do not want to regenerate the same child as him or her. For example, our common deafness or spinal muscle atrophy or our crispy X (syndrome). This belongs to a monominated disease. It has a clear pathogenic site, so we can give her a prenatal diagnosis. The second -level prevention is our intrauterine diagnosis. It is through the technical methods of our various prenatal diagnosis. We can do velvet puncture, can be used as amaranth, and can be used as umbilical blood puncture to judge the situation in the fetus. Then the three -level prevention of our country is the screening of newborns after birth.

In the prenatal diagnosis laboratory of Shijiazhuang Maternity Hospital, staff can escort the extraordinary mothers through advanced technical equipment, diagnosed major genetic defects, etc.

Zhang Jing, deputy director of the prenatal diagnosis center of Shijiazhuang Maternity and Gynecology Hospital:

In our prenatal diagnosis, the specimen obtained through the puncture, after training, producing, dyeing, and finally scanning, it is presented to our computer. In the case of abnormal structure, everyone can clearly see that his 21st words are one more. This is what we call the common 21 triple body (Tang's syndrome). For pregnant women's words, they usually choose to terminate pregnancy.
