ABSTRACT
In Mexico the birth prevalence of the metabolic diseases detected by
expanded newborn screening is poorly known and there is little information
about its performance indicators.
Objective. Describe the birth prevalence of the metabolic defects detected
by the expanded newborn screening program implemented in
the Mexican Navy (Secretaría de Marina Armada de México, SEMAR),
and to make known some of its performance indicators.
Materials and Methods. A blood sample of 5 205 newborns from 18
Mexican states were taken. The age at blood sampling, the proportion
of samples taken between the 3rd and the 5th days of life, and the time
of results delivery were analyzed. The number and type of detected
metabolic diseases, as well as the maternal age and body mass index,
the type of birth, the gestational age and weight of the newborns were
analized.
Results. The age at blood sampling was 4.7 days and 81.15 percent of
the samples were obtained in optimal time. Two cases of congenital
hypothyroidism (3.8/10 000 newborns), one of adrenal congenital hyperplasia
(1.9/10 000 newborns) and five cases of deficiency of glucose-
6-phosphate dehydrogenase (9.6/10 000 newborns) were detected.
The 85.6% of mothers had pregnancies at an optimal reproductive age
(20-35 years), but overweight and obesity occurred in 44.7% of them.
Conclusions. In this analyzed population, the birth prevalence of
metabolic defects was 15.37/10 000 newborns. The expanded newborn
screening program allowed its identification and timely treatment, with
the aim of preventing disability and death.
