This is a probability test so will never give you a definite yes or no. But at these less it shows a very low chance of Down syndrome. It checks specifically for this condition. Sometimes they check for other conditions (patau and Edwards syndrome) and should give you another probability result.
I believe the results show that there is a low risk but you should discuss it with your midwife at your next appointment.
If you were high risk, you would have been told. I think high risk is like 1:200 chance.
