Question

My child was born just two days ago, and both families are very happy about the arrival of this child. We are worried about any potential issues with the baby, so we took the child for a health check. Now we have the newborn disease screening report. Is it normal?

Answer

Generally, newborns can undergo health checks, primarily including tests for phenylketonuria or congenital hypothyroidism, as well as hearing tests for the baby’s ears. The report also includes audio prompts; if the detailed results are within the normal range, there is no need to worry.
