Anxiety during a crisis: emotional effects of screening for neural tube defects.

J O Robinson, B M Hibbard, K M Laurence.   

Abstract

Anxiety was assessed in prospective mothers undergoing screening for foetal neural tube defects. Anxiety was found to be extreme and only returned to normal levels when a definitely negative amniocentesis result was communicated to the woman. Anxiety was mitigated by social and family support but other life events had little effect on it.
