Are genetic metabolic disorders preventable. Why to screen them at birth?
When it comes to genetic metabolic disorders early detection is the prevention of disease manifestation. You can not prevent a genetic disorder from occurring. Screening at birth by painless urine test can prevent the disease from harming the baby. Metabolic disorders are due to a defect in metabolic pathway as the enzyme catalyzing is defective due to a defect in a gene coding it. This situation can not be corrected but can be effectively managed by diet modifications and special foods. Genetic metabolic disorders are not preventable as they are defective gene that are passed from the parents to their offspring, that why screening at birth for these disorders become important. The parents just carry these genes without showing any signs of the disorders which then becomes evident in the baby after birth. Screening through urine sample for more than 100 metabolic disorders is gaining popularity, which is baby friendly rather than pricking them at the heel. Management of these disorders after screening will help in preventing any irreversible damage to the baby. After about 6 months of my baby's birth, my baby started becoming lethargic and less enthusiastic about feeding or even playing. She only slept all the times. Initially, I did not get too concerned about it, as most babies sleep all the time, but then when I showed her to the ped., he immediately asked me to do a metabolic urine test for 100 disorders, which showed positive and then only after modified diet, did my baby start to thrive. If I had known of this test before and that it could be done at birth, I would have not lost so much of time. While my baby is doing well now, I will always regret the fact that I did not do the urine test at birth. While metabolic disorders are not preventible, doing the simple urine test at birth can save a lot of time and pain for the health of the child.
