Missouri Newborn Blood Spot Screening
Missouri Department of Health and Senior ServicesBureau of Genetics and Healthy Childhood
September 21, 2017

Newborn Screening Statute Senate Bill 50 By January 1, 2019, the Department of Health and Senior
Services shall, subject to appropriations, expand the newborn screening requirements in section 191.331 to include spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and Hunter syndrome (MPS II).

What does “Transit Time” mean???
Transit Time = the time from sample collection to the start of testing by the Missouri State Public Health Laboratory (MSPHL)
Transit time can be impacted by many factors. It is important for newborn nurseries, hospital
laboratories, the MSPHL, and the follow-up program to continuously communicate and collaborate.
Each and every screen should be treated as though it will make the difference between life and death for a newborn.
-
Missouri’s Principal Timeliness Issues No weekend or holiday courier pickup (the state contracted
courier had the same days off as the MSPHL). Smaller birthing hospitals were not provided courier (did not
have enough births) so they routinely utilized regular U.S. mail. MSPHL did not work weekends. MSPHL had several observed Monday holidays resulting in
three-day weekends. Some hospitals experienced logistical issues provoking delays
internally. Lack of traceability for hospitals to promptly verify their samples
were received by the MSPHL. Lack of funding to remedy the above issues.
-
Initial Improvements at MSPHL(with no additional funding)
Worked with hospitals who were not on the courier system to self-transport their newborn screening (NBS) samples to their nearest county health department (included midwives).
Worked one-on-one with any hospitals displaying timeliness issues.
Began providing customized monthly timeliness reports to Laboratory and OB managers in those institutions.
Increased timeliness education overall. During routine phone conversations with nurseries,
laboratories and PCP’s. Newborn Screening Regulations reminder on website…
“samples must be sent to the MSPHL (not received) within 24 hours of collection”.
“Top 10 Reminders” Notice.

Improvements Requiring Funding
Implemented holiday courier pickup January 1, 2014 ($6,000 per year).
MSPHL received legislative funding to enhance the courier system and implement Saturday and holiday testing (supported by a Kansas City, MO legislator).
Implemented Sunday courier pickups starting July 5, 2015 ($36,000 per year).
Added 8 more birthing hospitals to the current 46 routine hospital sites for the courier starting July 5, 2015 ($44,000 per year).
Implemented Saturday and holiday testing beginning October 3, 2015 ($200,000 per year).
-
• NBS courier expansion announcement
• A reminder about getting the sample to the pickup site immediately after drying
• A reminder about the life-saving importance of timeliness
• State NBS Laboratory will be converting to a six-day work week
• A reminder to get connected to the NBS Laboratory report access portal to provide verification of sample receipt
A notice was sent out each day for one month with NBS Laboratory reports:
-
Missouri’s Saturday/Holiday Work Model 100% voluntary staffing process. A skeleton crew of seven scientists work each Saturday/holiday
(excludes Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day) and all screening tests are performed.
Hired one full-time employee, a manager to run the Saturday/holiday expansion and supervise the adjunct staff.
Two newborn screening laboratory employees were hired agreeing they would work Tuesday through Saturday until attrition allows them to move to Monday through Friday.
Four other adjunct employees work each Saturday/holiday making straight-time pay (classified as secondary assignment staff).

What Can Hospitals Do? Aim to collect NBS specimens at 24 hours of age for all babies. Fill out the collection card completely, accurately, and legibly. Check the specimen. If there is any doubt about quality,
recollect immediately. Dry specimen horizontally for three to four hours making sure it
does not touch anything. Package specimens for transport daily and know your courier’s
pickup time. Routinely check the laboratory report access portal to ensure
specimens were received and determine if any action is necessary.
-
The Missouri Newborn Screening Laboratory Report Access Portal
-
• The Laboratory Report Access Portal provides a secure website where submitters can track their NBS samples along with printing and/or saving their laboratory reports in real time.
-
• NBS announcements are displayed on this page.
-
Three ways to search for results.
-
What are the benefits of the portal? A secure website for hospitals to verify daily that the MSPHL has
received their samples. Sample receipt verification is a College of American
Pathologists (CAP) Laboratory Accreditation requirement for laboratories for all send-out samples.
Hospitals can notify the MSPHL if they determine that samples may not have been received and investigations on both sides can commence quickly.
Hospitals can print and/or save their own NBS reports from this site and not have to wait for them to come through the mail.
Reduces the number of calls into the MSPHL requesting NBS lab reports.
Both submitting hospital and MSPHL can become paperless.

Objectives
Identify newborn vaccines Identify vaccines for healthcare
workers Identify vaccines for pregnant
women
-
Who makes vaccine recommendations?
Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) Medical personnel○ Vaccinology○ Immunology○ Pediatrics○ Internal and Family medicine○ Nursing○ Infectious disease ○ Public health
-
Why is the ACIP schedule recommended?
Best immune response Protects at the earliest possible age Provides appropriate spacing for best
outcomes Research has shown this schedule to be
the safest and most effective
-
Why are vaccinations recommended for newborns?
Protect as soon as possible Passive immunity wanes Vaccine-preventable diseases still exist The body responds best to some
vaccinations early in life
-
At what age should vaccines be started?
Within 24 hours of birth Hepatitis B
6 weeks – 8 weeks of age Diphtheria, Tetanus and acellular Pertussis (DtaP) Haemophilus Influenza B (Hib) Polio (IPV) Hepatitis B (HepB) Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine 13 (PCV13) Rotavirus (Rota)
-
Hepatitis B Vaccine
Protects against the virus Hepatitis B Hepatitis B is contracted through blood and bodily
fluids
Why do we vaccinate against Hepatitis B at birth? Children who contract the disease at a young age have
a 90% chance of developing chronic infection Children who have chronic infection tend to have a
shortened life expectancy
-
Hepatitis B Vaccine (cont.)
Recommendations: Dose one at birth (within 24 hours of birth) Dose two at two or four months of age Dose three at six months of age
Spacing guidelines for vaccination At least four weeks between dose one and two At least eight weeks between dose two and three At least 16 weeks between dose one and three Infant must be at least 24 weeks of age for 3rd
dose
-
Other infant immunizations DTaP, IPV, Hib,PCV13
Start between 6-8 weeks of age Are repeated at four, six and between 12-18 months
of age Infants are not fully protected until completing each
vaccine series Rotavirus is started between 6-16 weeks of age and
finished by eight months of age Hep B
Dose 2 administered at 2 months or 4 months Dose 3 administered at 6 months or 24 weeks of age
-
Tetanus, Diphtheria and acellular Pertussis (Tdap)
Why does this affect adults? Protects against tetanus, diphtheria and
pertussis Half of infants under twelve months of age who
contract pertussis will require hospitalization 1 in 100 of those will die due to pertussis Infants are not protected until all four doses of
DTaP have been administered
-
Tetanus, Diphtheria and acellular Pertussis (Tdap)
Recommendations One dose for all adults One dose for all healthcare workers One dose recommended during each pregnancy for
women beginning at 27 weeks gestation
Efficacy 73% effective at reducing disease for up to two years
after vaccination 91% protection rate following pregnancy for infants
through the first two months
-
Tetanus, Diphtheria acellular Pertussis (Tdap)
Efficacy Infants who contracted pertussis after mother
was vaccinated during pregnancy were shown to have:○ Decreased need for hospitalization○ Decreased need for intubation○ Quicker recovery○ Pertussis was not life-threatening
Safety Research has shown that the vaccine is safe
and has shown no adverse effects for mom or baby
-
Influenza
Flu season is October-May each year Peaks January-March Influenza A occurs early with Influenza B later Missouri had 71,000+ individuals test positive for the
2016 flu season 2,093 Missourians died due to
influenza/pneumococcal complications in 2016 alone 1 pediatric death
-
Influenza Spread
Individuals are contagious one day before start of symptoms
Recommendations Flu vaccination for everyone six months of age and
older Flu vaccination for every pregnant woman any time
during pregnancy Flu vaccination for all healthcare providers/staff
-
InfluenzaWhy should pregnant women and healthcare workers receive the flu vaccine? Pregnant women who contract the flu tend to have more
serious complications from influenza Infants tend to have lower birth weights
Healthcare workers Spread influenza to vulnerable patients Unimmunized healthcare workers are often the source of
influenza outbreaks in hospitals and long-term care facilities Immunized healthcare workers are associated with fewer
patient deaths in nursing homes and long-term care facilities.
-
Talking points for providers Why are vaccines important?
Vaccines stimulate your baby’s immune system to create antibodies so they can fight off these serious diseases
I don’t know anyone with these diseases, so why do I need to vaccinate my baby? Even though we do not see some of these diseases here in
the United States, they do still occur overseas and we do see outbreaks of whooping cough, measles and mumps
Isn’t it better for my baby to get these diseases naturally? While natural infection is best for some of these
diseases, unfortunately, the price paid could be paralysis, brain damage, cancer, blindness or even death
-
Talking Points to staff
Inactivated Influenza Vaccine does not give you the flu
Influenza is not treated with antibiotics Influenza season is October-May Hospital patients, both the very young and
the very old, are vulnerable to complications from influenza
-
Vaccine safety Are there side effects?
Pain/redness at injection site
Are there risks to vaccinations? Limited risk - greater benefit Screening questions limit the risk
Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) Does not show causality System is routinely checked
-
Vaccine safety never stops
They are continuously monitored for safety
