Newborn Screening: Adrenogenital Syndrome
Since 2005, the "Arabkir" Medical Center has been conducting and submitting various newborn screening programs for state approval, including congenital hypothyroidism, hearing screening, phenylketonuria, and hip dysplasia. Last year, adrenogenital syndrome was added to this list and successfully implemented nationwide.
The goal of these screenings is to examine newborns within the first days of life, often right in the maternity hospital, to detect potential issues early and intervene promptly. Early diagnosis helps prevent complications and disabilities.
Public TV channel "News" recently covered this important topic, highlighting the impact of newborn screening programs.
