Vasistera™ NIPT
Use
Vasistera™ NIPT is a noninvasive prenatal screening test that analyzes cell-free DNA from the blood of pregnant individuals to screen for common chromosomal conditions affecting the fetus, including trisomy 21, trisomy 18, trisomy 13, and sex chromosome aneuploidies. The test helps identify pregnancies with an increased risk of these genetic conditions, aiding in early intervention and informed decision-making alongside healthcare providers.

Limitations
Vasistera™ NIPT does not report on other chromosomal conditions such as triploidy or microdeletions like 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. The test is limited to single nucleotide polymorphism-based analysis and may not capture all genetic variations that could affect the pregnancy. It is not available for pregnancies with gestational carriers, egg donors, or dizygotic twins.
