Abstract

Prenatal diagnosis is the fundamental pillar to reduce fetal complications, which has promoted advancements in diagnostic methods and decreased fetal risk. In Colombia, the availability of non-invasive techniques is limited, making amniocentesis the primary method for determining genetic disorders, where the risks during the procedure are minimal due to the technique and operator factor. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of diagnostic amniocentesis in the city of Cúcuta, Norte de Santander, between 2018 and 2023, using a quantitative approach with a descriptive, cross-sectional methodology. During this period, 124 amniocenteses were performed on pregnant women aged between 16 and 46 years, of which 12.1% presented chromosomal abnormalities in the report, with Patau syndrome and Edwards syndrome being the most frequent. This study highlighted the importance of fetal findings through ultrasound as the main indication for amniocentesis, and early diagnosis leads to a reduction in fetal and maternal complications and also allows for preparation for the arrival of a child with a chromosomal alteration.
