Automated Screen for Fetal Aneuploidy

The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a blood test and automated microfluidic test platform for the prenatal screening of fetal aneuploidy.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Subject is at least 18 years old and can provide informed consent;
2. Subject has a viable singleton or twin pregnancy;
3. Subject is confirmed to be at least 10 weeks, 0 days gestation at the time of the study blood draw;

5. OR the subject has already undergone chorionic villus sampling and/or amniocentesis and is known to have a fetus with a chromosomal abnormality confirmed by genetic analysis.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subject (the mother) has known aneuploidy;
2. Subject is pregnant with more than two fetuses or has had sonographic evidence of three or more gestational sacs at any time during pregnancy;
