New Delhi: The doctors working in government hospitals like All India Institutes of Medical Sciences
(AIIMS) as well as practicing in Delhi and national capital region (NCR) are strongly lobbying with the government to allow them to carry out ‘new-born screening’ (NBS) for all babies in India. Known as a prevention programme, NBS includes a set of tests wherein the doctors can easily detect and prevent ‘inborn errors of metabolism’ (IEMs) which is referred to as congenital metabolic diseases or inherited metabolic disorders. These are rare genetic (inherited) disorders in which the body cannot properly turn food into energy. https://www.sundayguardianlive.com/news/doctors-lobbying-making-new-born-screening-mandatory Please make our country a better and safer place for Newborns.
