B. Encourage the mother to have further genetic testing done
C. Provided educational materials on the effects of neural tube defect (NTD)
D. Document the findings in the mothers chart and schedule her next check up visit
✅B. Encourage the mother to have further genetic testing done
NFT is a screening. >2.5 is an abnormal value that indicates there may be a genetic
issue with the fetus. Further genetic testing is required for diagnosis.

B. This is the only time an ultrasound can be completed in pregnancy
C. This is the optimal time to measure crown to rump length for assessing the baby's
gestational age
