Question
The newborn underwent disease screening after a cesarean section. How should parents interpret the screening results?
Answer
Hello parents, according to national regulations, newborns must undergo genetic metabolic disease screening after birth. This screening is mandatory, and the hospital will carry it out. If you do not receive any abnormal notifications, it means the screening results are normal. Parents should not worry excessively. As long as you confirm that the heel blood sample has been collected, the local maternal and child health care agency will notify you of the results.
