International Journal of Neonatal Screening, Volume 9, Issue 2

June 2023 - 18 articles

Cover Story: A number of problems emerged at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Newborn screening (NBS) programs, although being a vital public health service, also faced staff and essential supply shortages. All processes in NBS had to be re-evaluated to ensure safe blood collection, transportation, analysis and result communication. Telemedicine gained attention to enable communication with patients, parents, and medical staff. Despite these difficulties, with adaptations, modifications and contingency planning, some centres continued NBS with minimal problems or even implemented novel NBS protocols for the inclusion of additional diseases. National and international collaborations are important to learn and to improve NBS programs during a time of crisis and also in regular daily practice. View this paper
