Answers to common questions about the newborn screening process.
Newborn Screening Ontario (NSO) is the provincial program that coordinates newborn screening in Ontario, Canada.
Newborn screening is a test done shortly after birth to look for treatable diseases that usually show no symptoms in the newborn period. Early detection of these diseases through newborn screening prevents serious health problems and can save lives.
