Overview
There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for tricuspid valve regurgitation. But there are some genetic conditions which might lead to tricuspid valve regurgitation and can be screened.
OR
According to the [guideline name], screening for [disease name] is not recommended.
OR
According to the [guideline name], screening for [disease name] by [test 1] is recommended every [duration] among patients with [condition 1], [condition 2], and [condition 3].
Screening
There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for [disease/malignancy].
OR
According to the [guideline name], screening for [disease name] is not recommended.

- Genetic conditions like which might lead to tricuspid valve regurgitation include:[1][2]
- Trisomy 21
- Trisomy 18
- Trisomy 13
- Turner syndrome
- Screening can be done by using the following in these patients, assessment of tricuspid blood flow along with the following:
- Fetal nuchal translucency (NT) thickness
- Fetal heart rate (FHR)
- Serum free beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG)
- Pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A)
- [Condition 1]
- [Condition 2]
- [Condition 3]
