Unity Complete is a non-invasive prenatal screen. With a single blood draw from mom, often as early as 9 to 10 weeks, it looks at your baby’s DNA, which naturally circulates in your blood during pregnancy, to estimate the chance that your baby may be born with certain chromosomal or inherited conditions.
It’s a gentle, low-stress way to gather information at a time when many families want reassurance. There’s no risk to your baby, and most families receive a reassuring, low-risk result.
Older types of screening for inherited conditions usually need a blood sample from both parents, tested one after the other. Unity Complete is different: it can estimate your baby’s risk from your blood alone.

Unity Complete combines screening for common chromosomal conditions with screening for inherited (recessive) conditions, giving you and your provider a fuller early picture in a single visit.
Optional fetal sex determination available.
Screens for up to 14 inherited conditions.
For families in our community, this matters: North Las Vegas is one of Nevada’s most diverse cities, and many inherited conditions can affect any family regardless of background. Unity Complete screens the same way for everyone.
Unity Complete is offered as a first-line screen for expecting families generally, not just those flagged as high-risk. National guidance recommends that prenatal screening for conditions like Down syndrome be discussed and offered to all patients early in pregnancy, regardless of age.
It may be an especially helpful option if you want answers without involving a partner’s sample, if you’re using a donor, if you’d like to know your baby’s risk sooner, or if you simply want a clear early picture so you can plan and prepare.
From one blood draw, learn whether your baby is at higher risk for common chromosomal and inherited conditions, often weeks earlier than traditional approaches.
Most families receive a reassuring, low-risk result. For the few who don’t, learning early means time to understand, ask questions, and prepare with your care team.
Earlier answers help you make decisions for your family and connect with specialists and resources sooner, when planning has the most value.
Unity Complete is a screening test, not a diagnosis. A low-risk result greatly lowers the chance of a condition but doesn’t completely rule everything out. A high-risk result doesn’t mean your baby is definitely affected. It means your provider may recommend additional testing to learn more.
Either way, you won’t navigate it alone. Your provider will walk you through your results, what they mean for you, and any next steps, one at a time. It’s the kind of thing worth raising at a prenatal visit, so you can talk it through with someone who knows your history.
It can be done early in pregnancy, often as early as 9 to 10 weeks. Your provider will confirm the right timing for you at your visit.
No. Unity Complete can assess your baby’s risk from your blood sample alone, which is one of the things that sets it apart from older screening approaches.
No. It’s a screening test that estimates the chance of certain conditions. If a result comes back high-risk, your provider may recommend follow-up diagnostic testing to learn more.
