Abstract

Inherited hemoglobin disorders including sickle cell disease (SCD) and the thalassemia syndromes represent a heterogeneous group of inherited blood disorders that have been shown to benefit from early detection and intervention. Newborn screening (NBS) programs are the primary method by which we detect children affected by hemoglobinopathy disorders.
