Brief Summary

The research aims at generating new knowledge about ways to inform pregnant women about prenatal screening for Downs syndrome. The overall purpose of this project is to increase pregnant women's knowledge of prenatal screening for Downs syndrome, and thereby an option to make an informed choice. The project is planned as a research into whether the use of an eHealth solution (in this project an interactive website) may be an appropriate intervention for pregnant women.
