Protect Your Newborn’s Future with Essential Early Screening
As new parents in South Africa, you want nothing but the best for your precious baby. Our Newborn Screening Panel Basic Test provides the peace of mind every parent deserves by detecting four critical conditions that could impact your baby’s health and development. For just ZAR 550, this comprehensive screening could be the most important investment in your child’s future.
Understanding Your Baby’s Newborn Screening
This essential panel screens for four vital health indicators using just a few drops of blood from your baby’s heel. Our advanced laboratory analysis detects:
- TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) – Identifies congenital hypothyroidism that could affect brain development
- 17-Hydroxyprogesterone – Screens for congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a serious adrenal gland disorder
- G6PD – Detects glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency that can cause anemia
- Hemoglobinopathy – Identifies inherited blood disorders like sickle cell disease
Early detection through this screening allows for immediate intervention, potentially preventing lifelong complications.
Every South African Newborn Deserves This Protection
This screening is recommended for all newborns across South Africa, regardless of family history or apparent health. Many of these conditions show no immediate symptoms but can cause serious developmental issues if left undetected. Particularly important for families in:
- Johannesburg and surrounding Gauteng areas
- Cape Town and Western Cape communities
- Durban and KwaZulu-Natal regions
- Pretoria and other major urban centers
Don’t wait for symptoms to appear – early screening provides the protection your baby needs.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Baby’s Health
Early intervention through newborn screening can:
- Prevent intellectual disability through early thyroid treatment
- Avoid life-threatening adrenal crises with proper medication
- Prevent severe anemia episodes by managing G6PD deficiency
- Enable proactive management of blood disorders before complications arise
- Provide peace of mind knowing your baby has been thoroughly screened
For just ZAR 550, this screening offers invaluable protection for your child’s future.
