Newborn Screening Program (NBS) Community and Family Health Services Commission Indiana State Department of Health NBS A blood test (by heel-stick) that is done on all infants shortly after birth to test for certain genetic conditions. All infants born in Indiana must be tested for: - Phenylketonuria (PKU) - Galactosemia - Homocystinuria (Classic) - Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) - Hypothyroidism - Hemoglobinopathies / Sickle Cell Disease - Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) - Biotinidase Deficiency -Disorders Detected by MS / MS MS/MS: Tandem Mass Spectrometry --In 2001 the IN State Legislature amended the requirements of the NBS Law to include additional disorders detected by this process --Tandem Mass Spectrometry is an analytical technique that separates and detects protein ions --Expanded testing for 17 additional conditions was initiated in January 2003 Disorders Detected by Tandem Mass Spectrometry Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorders: Interfere with the body’s ability to turn fat into energy Organic Acid Disorders: Inability to break down amino acids and other metabolites Other Amino Acid Disorders: Include Tyrosinemia & disorders of Urea Cycle Mission Statement Ensure that all newborns receive statemandated screening for genetic disorders. Follow-up to ensure that infants who test positive for a screened condition receive appropriate treatment, and that their parents receive appropriate genetic counseling. Promote public awareness concerning genetic conditions. NBS Law It is legislatively mandated (IC 16-41-17) IC 16-41-17-8 states that “Each hospital and physician shall ~ take or cause to be taken a blood sample from every infant born under the hospital’s and physician’s care” NBS Law 410 IAC 3-3-3 Sec. 3 (d) states that; “If the infant is discharged from the hospital before forty-eight (48) hours after birth or before being on a protein diet for twenty-four (24) hours, a blood specimen shall be collected regardless.” Newborn Screening Process Protocols Initial screening Normal result Invalid screen Abnormal Result Presumptive positive Positive cases Newborn Screening Process WHAT IS A VALID SCREEN? A valid screen is one which is drawn after the child is 48 hours of age and has been on protein feeding for at least 24 hours. The blood specimen must be received at the laboratory within 10 days of collection. Newborn Screening Process Why may a screen be invalid / incomplete? If a screen is drawn prior to 48 hours of age and/or 24 hours protein feeding. Missing or erroneous information on test requisition card. Rejection due to QNS, or specimens greater than 10 days old. Newborn Screening Process Video - How to conduct valid NBS test Newborn Screening Process Centralized follow-up system Invalid screen Abnormal Result Presumptive positive Confirmed positive ISDH RESPONSIBILITIES Ensure mandated newborn screening tests are properly conducted.

Change of information Assurance More than 99% of infants receive initial screen More than 98% of newborns receive complete / valid screens 100% of infants with positive test condition received treatment and follow-ups More than 35 PHN assistance requested per month Indiana Newborn Hearing Screening Children and Family Health Services Commission Indiana State Department of Health UNHS Indiana’s Universal Newborn Hearing Screening Program is designed to identify infants, assure appropriate intervention, and collect information on the incidence of hearing loss in infants born in Indiana. UNHS Legislative mandated program IC 16-41-17-2 “… every infant shall be given a physiologic hearing screening examination at the earliest feasible time for the detection of hearing impairments.” Why Is UNHS Mandated Hearing loss occurs more frequently than any other problems screened for at birth 1 to 3 out of every 1000 babies are born with permanent hearing loss Simple, inexpensive, non-invasive, and safe tests are available How Are Babies Tested Two procedures Automated ABR Oto-acoustic Emissions Auditory Brainstem Response Band-aid-like electrodes Earphones Clicks are presented Measures the brain’s response to sound Oto-acoustic Emissions Miniature earphone and microphone Clicks are heard Ear echoes back and is recorded by the microphone Both are reliable and accurate Some hospitals use one method Some hospitals use a combination Expected Outcomes of UNHS Across the nation, 2-10% of babies do not pass the screen The expected referral rate for UNHS is <4% Less than 1% will have a hearing loss Most babies referred will be shown to have normal hearing Why Is Detection of Hearing Loss Important Most common congenital anomaly Evidence suggests that early identification and intervention results in significantly better language ability UNHS increases the chance that intervention will occur before 6 months of age Can A Baby Pass and Still Have a Loss Not Often Some mild losses or losses that only affect certain pitches may be missed Some will have delayed onset hearing loss (not present at birth) Goals of UNHS Physically screen all infants born in Indiana prior to discharge Perform diagnostic evaluation before three months of age Enroll in early intervention before six months of age Hospital Responsibilities Screen all the infants prior to discharge Provide second screen to those who do not pass initial screen Notify parents of results Report all that do not pass two screens to ISDH Hospital Responsibilities Report to ISDH 1. Non-compliance 2. Inability to contact families 3. Change of information Basic Protocol Provide UNHS brochure to all parents Explain how, when, where, duration, of the screening process to all parents Basic Protocol Reassure all parents that screen is safe, noninvasive and painless Complete religious waiver and attach a copy to MSR if parents refuse screening due to religious reasons Best Practice: Complete re-screens prior to discharge What Are Risk Factors Family history of congenital hearing loss Congenital infection (Herpes, Cytomegalovirus, Rubella, Syphilis, Toxoplasmosis) Hyperbilirubinemia/Tranfusion High Risk Factors for Delayed Onset of Hearing Loss Infant should have follow –up testing at 9 to 12 months of age Follow-up every 6 to 12 months until age 3 A more formal mechanism of follow-up is being developed (Child with speech/language delays of concerns should have hearing tested) What to Say to Parents When Referral Is Indicated Keep it simple Do not say “failed” or “deaf” or “this happens a lot” Indicate the infant did not pass the hearing screen Reassure the family that there are many reasons why this can happen What to Say to Parents When Referral Is Indicated Reassure the family that further diagnostic testing will clarify the hearing status Stress that it is important that the diagnostic testing is completed in a timely manner (by age 3 months) Provide the family with the referral brochure and inform them about First Steps Early Intervention Program First Steps Program Early Intervention Program (Administered by FSSA, Part C/IDEA) Provide testing and follow-up to families for a minimal cost Audiologist must be enrolled providers for reimbursement Waiver of informed consent First Steps Responsibilities Best Practices Ensure appropriate diagnostic evaluation for all babies who need it Assist ISDH with tracking of babies identified with hearing loss Provide follow up and technical assistance to families with children at high risk of hearing loss under three years of age Medical Homes The primary medical physician (PMP) is responsible for overall medical well being of the child The PMP needs to be informed about screening results/risk factors, and follow up issues The PMP is an important member of the team for the best long term outcomes Lake Map of Indiana - Comm Hosp of Munster Methodist Hosp Gary Methodist Hosp Merrillville Saint Anthony Med Cen of Crown Point Saint Catherine Hosp of East Chicago Saint Margaret Mercy – Hammond Saint Margaret Mercy –Dyer Saint Mary's Med Cen Hobart Howard Howard Comm Hosp St Joe Hosp/Health Care Ctr - Kokomo LaPorte Elkhart LaGrange Steuben Cameron Elkhart Porter LaPorte HospSt. Joseph LaGrange Mem Hosp Gen Hosp Hosp Lake Portage St Anthony Goshen Comm Hosp Mich Gen Hosp Noble DeKalb Hosp City Marshall Parkview •DeKalb Porter CommHos Kosciusko Starke St Joe Hos Kosciusko Noble Hosp Mem Hosp Mem Hosp Starke Mem Marshall Co Allen Comm Hosp Whitley Jasper Hosp Whitley Lutheran Hosp Fulton Pulaski Jasper Co Mem HospParkview Mem Woodlawn Pulaski Hosp St Joe Med Cen Hosp Mem Hosp New Miami Wabash Hunt- – Ft Wayne Dukes Wabash ington White Cass ton Wells Adams Mem Co Hosp Parkview White Co Logansport •Adams Hosp Health Mem Hosp Mem Hosp Co Mem Center St. Joseph Ancilla Health Care Mem Hosp – South Bend St Joseph Med Cen – South Bend Wells Bluffton Med Center Caylor-Nickel Hosp Hosp Blackford Black Blackford Co Hosp Howard Marion Gen ford Jay Hosp Warren Jay Co Tipton Vermillion Clinton Delaware Hosp Tipton Co M St Vincent a Madison West Central Community Mem Hosp d Ball Mem Randolph Community Hosp of Anderson Fountain Montgomery Franklin Hos Hosp St Vincent Hosp St John Med Center Hamilton i St Clares V Randolph St Vincent Mercy Hosp – Elwood Riverview s Med Center Boone Morgan e o Hosp Hosp Henry r n Henry Co Wayne m Morgan Co Mem Hosp i Hendricks Marion Hancock Mem Hosp Reid Hosp St Francis Hosp & Health Parke Marion ll Hendricks Hancock Mooresville Putnam Comm Care Ctr i Mem Hosp Columbia Women's Hosp of Indpls o Fayette Putnam Co Hosp n Rush Fayette Union Community Hosp of Indpls Hosp Vigo Shelby Johnson 1-East, 2-North, 3-South Mem Hosp Clay Morgan Johnson •Major Vigo St Methodist Hosp Indpls Columbia Terre Haute Hosp Mem Franklin Nurse Midwives Vincent Union Hosp – Terre Decatur Hosp Clay Riley Hosp - Data Management Off.
