Added Protection: Newborn Genetic Screening
Protection
Only ViaCord offers expecting families the added protection of newborn genetic screening with HealthCheckNB™ – a service that can detect more than 50 disorders in newborns. This screening gives you the opportunity to protect your baby from the preventable complications of undiagnosed disorders. Many of these disorders are manageable if treatment begins early.
Peace of Mind
When it comes to the health of a child, any information is valuable information. HealthCheckNB™ determines the risk your baby is at for a metabolic or other inherited disorder. An abnormal result indicates the need for diagnostic testing to confirm the presence of a disorder. If your baby is diagnosed with one of these disorders, early medical intervention can play a key role in helping him or her lead a normal life—HealthCheckNB™ is the first step in this process.
Process
The process for screening your baby is simple. Call ViaCord to learn more.
