Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-ups haven't helped. Could you please tell me what method is used for newborn screening of phenylketonuria?Doctor's answer:
Newborn screening for phenylketonuria, the blood taken generally needs to be tested through venipuncture. If a child's growth and development are abnormal, it is often due to blood diseases, but the specific situation should be determined based on the results.
