NBS - Biotinidase Deficiency -Disorders Detected by MS/MS
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
3
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
4
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 Tryrosinemia & disorders of Urea Cycle
5
Mission Statement Ensure that all newborns receive state-mandated 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.
6
NBS Law It is legislatively mandated (IC 16-41-17)
IC 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”
7
410 IAC 3-3-3 Sec. 3 (d) states that;
NBS Law 410 IAC 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.”
8
Newborn Screening Process
Protocols Initial screening Normal result Invalid screen Abnormal Result Presumptive positive Positive cases
9
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.
10
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 card. Rejection due to QNS, or specimens greater than 10 days old.

Indiana Newborn Hearing Screening
Children and Family Health Services Commission Indiana State Department of Health
20
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.
21
UNHS Legislative mandated program
IC “… every infant shall be given a physiologic hearing screening examination at the earliest feasible time for the detection of hearing impairments.”
22
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 and safe tests are available
23
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
24
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
25
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
26
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 Report all that do not pass two screens and all that are at risk for delayed onset hearing loss to the First Steps for 1. Diagnostic evaluation 2. Early intervention
27
Hospital Responsibilities
Notify ISDH of 1. Non-compliance 2. Inability to contact families 3. Change of information
28
Basic Protocol Provide UNHS brochure to all parents
Explain how, when, where, duration of the screening process to all parents
29
Basic Protocol Reassure all parents that screen is safe, non-invasive 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
30
When the Baby Passes Explain screening process
Give family the certificate Recommend parents keep records of screening results Provide parents with local resources if concerns arise regarding speech/language/development
31
When the Initial Screen Is Not Passed
Complete re-screen prior to discharge
32
When the Baby Does Not Pass
Inform parents of screening results and the need for referral Give parents referral brochure and certificate Report the findings to the PCP and First Steps Complete MSR follow-up report
33
What Are Risk Factors Family history of congenital hearing loss
Congenital infection (Herpes, Cytomegalovirus, Rubella, Syphilis, Toxoplasmosis) Hyperbilirubinemia/Transfusion
34
When a Baby Has A Risk Factor
And Passes the Screening Explain the results Inform the parents about PMP and First Steps referral Discuss the importance of monitoring speech/language process Complete MSR/Follow-up Report
35
When a Baby Has A Risk Factor
And Does not Pass Screening Treat as a baby who does not pass
36
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
37
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 for this to be completed in a timely manner (before the age 3 months) Provide the family with the referral brochure and inform them about First Steps Early Intervention Program
38

48
Why Meconium Testing It is legislatively mandated (PL-291/2001)
Drug abuse during pregnancy is a major health problem. Early recognition, proper treatment, and follow-up to maximize the child’s development is imperative since intrauterine drug exposure is associated with mild to severe developmental delay, central nervous system damage, and behavioral dysfunction.
49
Mission Statement To identify drug afflicted infants for referral to appropriate intervention and protection programs. To collect information on the incidence of drug abuse during pregnancy.
50
State Criteria The newborn’s weight is less than 2500 grams and the head is smaller than the 10th percentile for the infant’s gestational age when there is no other medical explanation for these conditions. OR
51
State Criteria • history of current or past drug use
2. When any two of the following conditions exist: • history of current or past drug use • unexpected abruptio placentae • no or inconsistent prenatal care; and • infant shows signs/symptoms suggestive of drug effects
52
Drug for Testing CLASS SPECIFIC DRUG Amphetamines Amphetamine, Methamphetamine Cannabinoids Marijuana Cocaine Cocaine Opiates Heroine, Morphine, Codeine, Hydrocodone
53
Positive Screening Result
Refer Child to First Steps Refer Mom to a Treatment Program Refer to Division of Family Services – Child in Need of Services
54
Negative Screening Result
No drugs/controlled substances were used, or Use of drug not detected by the test, or Use of drug that is detected by the test but, – did not take large enough dose – did not take it frequently enough to be detected – drug was taken in early pregnancy, during the First Trimester
55
Benefit • Maternal drug treatment • Pediatric follow-up
• Reduction of post-delivery drug exposure (breast feeding) • Maternal drug treatment • Pediatric follow-up • Programs for improvement of parenting skills • Home assistance
