Newborn Screening Promotional Materials
We have created materials that can be posted in clinics or given to patients and family members to encourage learning more about newborn screening. If you would like more information about our materials or are interested in ordering high quality, free copies, visit our Education and Training Resource Center.
Resources for Patients
The following videos were created to discuss newborn screening issues with patients. The first was created with interviews from our Consumer Task Force on newborn screening discussing what they wish every parent knew before the birth of their baby. The second video was created in parternship with Children's National Medical Center to discuss one of the newest additions to newborn screening: using pulse-oximetry to screen for critical congenital heart disease.
