Giving them a good start: informatics support of newborn screening and clinical care.
Newborns are a vulnerable population: Exposed to dramatically changing environmental conditions, potentially suffering from impairments that cannot realistically be diagnosed during pregnancy, with the risk that unfavorable conditions escalate fast. We have investigated informatics methods and tools to make screening for congenital diseases and containment of critical processes that start in the first days safer and more efficient. This poster present a set of three different methodological approaches that all aim at comprehensive improvement of neonatal care.
