10. National Evaluation of US Newborn Screening System Components

Author

Therrell, Bradford L. and Hannon, W. Harry

Abstract

Newborn screening has existed as a state-based public health service since the early 1960s. Every state and most territorial jurisdictions have comprehensive newborn screening programs in place, but in the United States a national newborn screening policy does not exist. This results in different administrative infrastructures, screening requirements, laboratory and follow-up services, medical management approaches, and related activities across the country. Federal initiatives and support have contributed to limited evaluations of various aspects of individual newborn screening programs at the national level, but funding is an issue. The national evaluation strategies have taken various forms, all with the intent of improving the screening system through review of actions taken and suggestions for future improvements. While participation in the national evaluation effort for newborn screening laboratory practices includes all US programs, and this has aided in improving quality and harmonizing protocols, other national evaluation activities have been only moderately successful. National data reporting of quality indicators for various program elements must be comprehensive and timely, and the elements must be universally accepted in order to meet the evaluation and improvement needs of the national newborn screening system. A comprehensive real time national evaluation activity will likely require additional resources and enforcement incentives. Limited federal actions through grant incentives and selected reporting requirements provide a possible means of stimulating programs to participate in national harmonization efforts.

Abstract

The incidence of AIDS is increasing among women in the United States, and 75 percent of women with AIDS are of childbearing age. In addition, more than 80 percent of AIDS cases in children result from transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from the mother at birth. Most cases of HIV infection progress to AIDS after 10 years, during which time the virus may be transmitted to sex partners and children of HIV-infected women. Knowledge about the prevalence of HIV infection in women of childbearing age would help to increase our understanding of the HIV epidemic and its course, and to develop approaches for improving its prevention. A portion of the 1987 to 1988 Centers for Disease Control (CDC) comprehensive family of HIV seroprevalence surveys first assessed the prevalence of HIV infection in childbearing women in the United States and Puerto Rico. The results of this and the succeeding annual national surveys are presented. Blood samples from newborn infants were collected on filter paper as part of newborn metabolic screening. The blood samples were tested for the presence of maternal antibody to HIV, an immune protein that is specifically directed against HIV. Data were collected from 38 states and the District of Columbia. HIV seroprevalence, or the presence of HIV antibody, was highest in New York, the District of Columbia, New Jersey, and Florida (ranging from 4.5 to 5.8 per 1,000 women giving birth in these states). On a national basis, it was estimated that 1.5 per 1,000 women who gave birth in 1989 were HIV-positive. If the rate of HIV transmission at childbirth is 30 percent, it is estimated that 1,800 infants became infected with HIV at childbirth over a given 12-month period. Based on these findings, the prevention of HIV transmission to women and their infants needs to be a major public health priority. (Consumer Summary produced by Reliance Medical Information, Inc.)
