Newborn Screening Market is Potential Growth by Top Key Players Agilent Technologies, AB SCIEX, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Covidien PLC, GE Life Sciences, Masimo Corporation, Natus Medical Inc., PerkinElmer Inc., and ZenTech S.A

Several governments are taking initiative in increasing awareness about newborn screening tests and are offering free screening services in some regions. For instance, in September 2018, the Florida Department of Health launched the Newborn Screening (NBS) Web Order Application. This statewide initiative has been developed to ensure efficiency and accuracy of newborn screening information submitted to the Bureau of Public Health Laboratories.

Moreover, novel biomarkers and analytical technologies are driving the evolution of Newborn Screening (NBS) programs. For instance, a rapid and highly sensitive point-of-care testing device has been developed and commercialized for the diagnosis of Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). According to a BMC Medicine Journal study 2015, SCD test demonstrated 99% specificity and 99% sensitivity for the diagnosis of several hemoglobin (Hb) variants: sickle cell trait (Hb AS), sickle cell anemia (Hb SS), Hb AA, Hb AC, and Hb SC, and requires only 5 μL of blood. Similarly, Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies are expected to impact newborn screening in the near future.

Increasing number of newborn screenings, owing to rising awareness among parents and governments is expected to drive the newborn screening market growth. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) 2017, four million infants in the U.S. are routinely screened, using a few drops of blood from their heel, for certain endocrine, genetic, and metabolic disorders. The infants are also tested for hearing loss and Critical Congenital Heart Defects (CCHDs) prior to discharge from a hospital or birth center.

Furthermore, increasing incidence of hospital acquired diseases create an acute need for newborn screening. For instance, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2011, around one in every 25 infants was infected with at least one hospital acquired infections.

Government initiatives to support screening of newborns is also a major factor driving the newborn screening market. For instance, CDC is working to harness the latest advances in science and technology so that more disorders can be identified accurately and treated quickly. In 2005, CDC established the Newborn Screening Translation Research Initiative (NSTRI) with the CDC Foundation. NSTRI works with corporate, academic, and foundation partners to assure the quality of research methods during both pilot studies and routine screening.
