A positive triple screen test can indicate an increased risk of complications, such as low birth weight, even if Down syndrome is ruled out by amniocentesis. These complications may arise from factors like poor placental function, which can affect fetal growth, leading to low birth weight. Therefore, close monitoring is necessary to manage potential risks.
