Nationwide, Couple-Based Genetic Carrier Screening
(Abstracted from N Engl J Med 2024;391:1877–1889) Couple-based genetic carrier screening analyzes parental genetic samples before or early in pregnancy to assess the risk of autosomal and X-linked recessive diseases in their children. Previously, carriers were often unidentified until after having an affected child but advances in sequencing now allow simultaneous screening across thousands of genes, giving prospective parents greater insight into their risk.
