Blood Spot Screening Disorder Fact Sheets

Blood spot disorders screened for in Minnesotan newborns are listed alphabetically below. Clicking on the name of a disorder in the list will bring you to a table with information about that disorder.

We provide fact sheets with disorder-specific information and next steps for both families and providers following an abnormal newborn screening result. Also, specialist contact lists are provided for specific cases where the Newborn Screening Program recommends the primary care provider consult with a specialist for further follow-up recommendations.

For more general information about newborn screening, see our For Families and For Providers sections.
