Prenatal care

Contemporary prenatal care is offered to all pregnant ladies in order to ensure the normal development of the pregnancy.

The first cosultation begins with the diagnosis of a normal intrauterine pregnancy.

The follow-up continues with subsequent examinations (scans fetal anatomy sureveys, fetal echocardiography, etc.).

Different laboratory and instrumental examinations (biochemical screening, non-invasive prenatal testing, cardiotocography etc.) are carefully planned.

Eventually, preparation for the mode of delivery is discussed.

At MC MARKOVS we use an individualized approach in every single case of pregnancy monitoring and follow-up. Our simple and main objective is to effectively identify all women who are at high risk for developing the most common pregnancy complications. Depending on the results of the different tests, the number and frequency of consultations in the prenatal care department is determined.

For more information about the possible follow-up packages in the prenatal care department of MC MARKOVS you can contact your doctor or call at the registration desk.
