NBS is not just relevant in the newborn period

History
• Dr. Robert Guthrie – Developed a test for PKU and a special filter paper
for collecting whole blood specimens from newborns
– Piloted the “Guthrie test” at a hospital in New York
– Guthrie lab started screening for PKU in 1961
• 1963 – State of Massachusetts passed a law mandating that all newborns be screened for PKU – Celebrating 50 years of newborn screening!
• 1975 – Forty-three states had laws for PKU screening that covered more than 90% of infants born in the U.S.

Uniform Recommended Panel
• 1999 –American Academy of Pediatrics recommended we develop national standards for NBS
• HRSA worked with the American College of Medical Genetics
• 2006 – HRSA/ACMG report “Newborn Screening: Toward a Uniform Screening Panel and System”
• SACHDNC – Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Heritable Disorders in Newborns & Children

Newborn Screening
Toward a Uniform Screening Panel and System
• Initial Uniform Panel – 29 primary and 25 secondary conditions
• Conditions selected based on standardized criteria, weighting methodology, and independent review
• Criteria Includes – Availability, cost, efficacy of therapy
– Efficient accurate diagnostic test
– Benefits of early detection and therapy
– Burden of disease
– etc.

Newborn Screening Saves Lives Act
• Originally passed in 2007, up for re-authorization in 2013
• Establishes grant programs for education and to coordinate follow-up Laboratory quality standards
• Establishes a central online clearinghouse for NBS information: http://BabysFirstTest.org
• Renews SACHDNC (Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Heritable Disorders and Genetic Diseases in Newborns and Children), and expands and coordinates research, particularly on conditions that could be added to the panel in the future.
• 2013 legislation is expected to be introduced this spring
