Understanding the implications of prenatal testing for Down syndrome

Understanding the implications of prenatal testing for Down syndrome: Research reviewed by Dr. Brian Skotko showed a 15% decrease in births of babies with Down syndrome between 1989 and 2005 in the United States. In the absence of prenatal testing, researchers would have anticipated the opposite - a 34% increase in births - due to the trend of women waiting longer to have children; known to increase the chances of having a baby with Down syndrome.
