The Emory University Regional Perinatal Center at Grady Hospital was organized in 1977. This center accepts referrals of patients not normally eligible for admission to Grady for tertiary level high risk maternity care. These patients are very high risk and require appropriate diagnostic evaluation and often intensive care. Contraction stress tests, percutaneous umbilical blood sampling, chorionic villus sampling, non-stress tests, amniocentesis, genetic counseling, ultrasonography, and many other tests and services are available to these patients.
