What is "newborn screening"?
Newborn screening is a set of tests performed on infants shortly after birth to check for certain serious health conditions that may not be obvious at birth. These tests typically involve taking a small blood sample from the baby’s heel, which is then tested for various conditions such as metabolic disorders, genetic conditions, and other diseases that can be treated early. Early identification through newborn screening allows for immediate treatment and action, which can prevent serious health issues or developmental problems later on.
