Overview
Newborn screening is a routine set of tests conducted shortly after a baby is born to detect potential developmental, genetic, and metabolic disorders. These screenings are performed before symptoms appear, enabling early intervention and treatment for these conditions. While these disorders are generally rare, early detection is crucial for effective management. A comprehensive newborn screening panel typically examines around 40 to 50 disorders to ensure comprehensive coverage.
