Serum Sample Collection to Determine Analytical Performance Characteristics of the ADVIA Centaur PAPPA and BhCG Assays

Serum Sample Collection to Determine Analytical Performance Characteristics of the ADVIA CENTAUR® PREGNANCY ASSOCIATED PLASMA PROTEIN A and ADVIA Centaur® Free Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin ASSAYS

Blood samples collected will be shipped to the sponsor's laboratory to establish analytical performance characteristics of the ADVIA Centaur® Pregnancy Associated Plasma Protein A (PAPP-A) and ADVIA Centaur® Free Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (Free βhCG) assays.

Blood samples are to be collected from pregnant women attending their scheduled 1st Trimester scan; the samples are to be collected immediately after the subject's routine blood sample at the clinic visit. No extra venepuncture will be required.
