🔬 Unveiling the Science Behind Newborn Screening: The DBS Workflow 🔬

Ever wondered how a tiny drop of blood from a baby's heel can help detect serious conditions like Congenital Hypothyroidism? It all comes down to the precise and critical Dried Blood Spot (DBS) sample preparation process!

Our latest poster breaks down the essential 4-step workflow that allows labs to analyze newborn samples accurately:

1️⃣ SAMPLE COLLECTION: Blood is collected on special filter paper and dried.

2️⃣ SAMPLE PREPARATION: Small punches from the DBS are extracted using a solvent.

3️⃣ EVAPORATION: The solvent is removed, concentrating the key analytes.

4️⃣ RECONSTITUTION: The dry extract is dissolved for final analysis.

This meticulous process is the unsung hero of newborn screening, enabling early diagnosis and life-changing interventions. Understanding the science helps us appreciate the importance of every single test!

🌟 Congenital Hypothyroidism: Early Detection Saves Futures! 🌟

🚨 Know the Symptoms:

✔ Short Stature – Slowed growth, below-average height

✔ Macroglossia – Enlarged tongue, affecting feeding/breathing

✔ "Puffy" Face – Swollen facial features

✔ Hypotonia – Weak muscles, "floppy" movements

✔ Delayed Milestones – Slower progress in walking, talking, learning

💙 Early intervention = Brighter futures! Share this to spread awareness.

🍼 Did you know?

Only 5–10% of people in Pakistan are aware of newborn screening — a simple test that can save lives.
Every day, babies are born with hidden disorders that go undiagnosed simply because most parents don’t know these screenings exist. This lack of awareness leads to delayed treatment, lifelong disabilities, or even death — all of which are preventable.

At Zahra Beau Welfare Foundation, we’re committed to changing this reality by offering free newborn screening and raising awareness across Pakistan.

📢 Help us spread the word.

Because every baby deserves a healthy start — no matter where they’re born.
