International Journal of Neonatal Screening, Volume 8, Issue 4

December 2022 - 17 articles

Cover Story: Each year almost 4 million newborns are screened for treatable conditions using both physiological and blood-based methods. Expansion of newborn screening (NBS) to include more conditions is usually triggered by the development of novel technologies to screen, diagnose, and/or treat disease. Discoveries of interventions for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) have led to research to determine if early identification through NBS leads to improved health outcomes. This issue of IJNS features an innovative model of piloting NBS for DMD using a consortia approach led by an advocacy group partnering with a state NBS program, a foundation, and multiple birth hospitals. The first year of a two-year DMD pilot demonstrates a useful model of collaboration to establish an evidence base to advance NBS. View this paper
