[1] Peridos is a national system where data of antenatal screening is recorded. This digital file records data concerning the antenatal screening for Down’s syndrome and the 20-week anomaly scan in order to improve and optimise the quality and the process of screening.
[1] Praeventis – see www.RIVM.nl. In the Netherlands the results of blood tests for pregnant women are registered nationally. This is done to ensure the quality of the tests and to safeguard the testing process. The RIVM, the national research institute for public health and the environment, is responsible for the data and for its security. Your data will also become part of the national blood bank’s information system, at Stichting Sanquin Bloedvoorziening. This registration is protected by data protection law. If you need a blood transfusion in the future, the blood transfusion lab may access your data.
