Spot On! Newborn Screening for Preterm, Low Birth Weight, and Sick Babies

January 14, 2010 • 1:00–2:00 PM ET

Description

There is a growing recognition of the need for different screening strategies to produce reliable results for premature, sick, and low birth weight newborns. This program will review recommended protocols, specific to newborn screening for this population of newborns. These guidelines have been developed in response to increased rates of premature birth in some parts of the world, advances in medical care, improved survival rates of ever smaller infants, and the complexity of screening panels that now include dozens of disorders.
