Is the newborn disease screening report normal?

Patient's question:

My child has only been here for two days since birth. Both families are very happy about the arrival of this child. We are very sad if the child has any problems, so we took him for a health check-up. Now we have switched to the newborn disease screening report for the child. Is it normal?

Doctor's answer:

Newborn babies can generally undergo relevant health checks, primarily including screening tests for phenylketonuria or congenital hypothyroidism. In addition, hearing tests for the child's ears are usually performed. Generally, the hospital doctor will inform you of the results of the examination. The report will also indicate that if the examination results are within the normal range, there is no need to be anxious.
