Regarding the risks of amniocentesis. I am not an expert but I have read a note at the gynecologist's where the management of the hospital asked doctors
to inform patients about the 2% risk of miscarriage after amniocentesis. Before that the official number was 1%. They even stated they did 200 tests last year and had 3 miscarriages as a direct result and 1 as a more complicated but related reason.
Please somebody get this right and include the sources. I think it is important. Thanks.

The PROCEDURE section seems to be casually worded, especially in the last sentence (...You or your doctor...)Derekbd 00:57, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
