Virtual Biospecimen RepositoryVirtual Biospecimen Repository
Allows centralized view of dried blood spot repositories of participating states HIPAA complaint Secure data exchange
Adding disease specific repositories maintained by NBSTRN investigators (e.g., LSDs, SCID, SMA) to system over time

R4SR4S
Web-based database for the collection and display of data from true positive patients found in newborn screening
Allows: Quality improvement of NBS Discovery of new markers for screened conditions Prospective collection of data in pilot tests for:
• New conditions• New technologies (e.g., comparative research)

Common Information Data SetCommon Information Data Set
Four domains of interest Surveillance Public health Patient care Knowledge generation
88 data elements in twenty-four data categories, including demographics, SES, family history, prenatal history, newborn screening, and emergency management.
Survey results show broad interest in each data element by all four of the domains of interest. Handout shows the results for each data element.
Standardization through NLM
