It presents the recommended uniform screening panel (RUSP), a list of genetic disorders recommended by the U.S. government for states to include in new- born screening programs. The author describes the categorization of RUSP genetic disorders, discusses the symptoms and health complications of examples from each category, and explains clinical laboratory tests used for newborn screening.
