Critical Congenital Heart Screen

CCHD screening is the least invasive of all testing options with the smallest measurable amount of harmful effect, and potentially the largest lifesaving results. CCHDs are the most common group of congenital malformations and one of the leading causes of infant death in the developed world. Congenital heart defects occur in 8 out of 1,000 live births, with 27% of infant deaths caused by birth defect-related deaths

Metabolic Blood Spot Screen

“Each year more than 250 babies - one in 400 to 500 births- are found to have a disorder detected by newborn bloodspot screening (formerly known as the PKU test)”. This is only a screening tool, but may help alert you to potential metabolic disorders, including finding out if your child is a genetic carrier and could pass off a disorder to their offspring.

3

Hearing Screen

Undiagnosed congenital hearing loss has been documented to negatively impact language, academic, and social development in children. Newborn hearing screening is the first step to early diagnosis and intervention of hearing loss.
