Answer to Question 1

C
Human placental lactogen is used for screening. Fetal tissue sampling and fetal cell isolation are performed for diagnosis. Fetal movement counting is for reassurance.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, E
Feedback
Correct These are all indications for PUBS. Another indication is for diagnosis or
disorders that require fetal blood for testing. Although used to develop a
karyotype (chromosome evaluation) other DNA analysis techniques might
also be utilized.
Incorrect NST or BPP are used to determination fetal well-being. An amniocentesis
is done in order to determine lung maturity.
