.Towards a uniform Newborn Screening Panel in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia AhmedBashir,MD,PhD;KarenWeissbecker,PhD;HanesAnderson,MD,PhD; AsimAbd-Mageed, MS, PhD Back ground Newborn screening uses population based screening test panels to identify newborns with medical conditions that could benefit from early diagnosis and treatment.. In 2006, the American College of Medicine Genetics (ACMG) outlined the minimal criteria for which disease should be tested within 24-48 hours postnatally. Methodology Guthrie test for Hyperphenylalaninemia (PKU), Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), DNA techniques, Iso- Electro- Focusing (IEF), and High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), and labeled bead technology, were used in this study. Results Saudi Arabia started national screening for Congenital Hypothyroidism in 1991. The program expanded in 2007 to include 23 other diseases tested. Between 2005and 2007, Ministry of Health , King Faisal Specialist and Prince Salman Center tested 25% of the country newborns, and between 2007 and 2009 these institutes screened 50% of the newborns. Recommendations As newborn screening is done only in three major Saudi cities by three institutes. Ministry of health should be responsible for delivering newborn screening to the whole country by adapting a new program of newborn screening.
