Serum samples are generally used for the measurement of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) to calculate second-trimester maternal screening results. Lower hCG concentrations correlate with a lower calculated risk of Down syndrome (DS). Hence, erroneously low hCG results due to fibrin clot may lead...
