Pennsylvania+Universal+Newborn+Screening

Newborn screening:
Newborn screening, by definition, is the act of testing genetic material (primarily blood samples) from newborn children for possible diseases. In the state of Pennsylvania, a total of 28 different disorders are screened for, including Isobutyryl-CoA deficiency. Under Act 36, an amendment to the 1965 Newborn Child Testing Act, 22 more genetic and metabolic conditions were made mandatory for testing, along with the original six mandated genetic and metabolic conditions.
