1. G6PD
G6PD deficiency is a genetic disorder that affects the red blood cells, making them more vulnerable to breaking down prematurely.
Symptoms such as fatigue, jaundice, dark urine, or a family history of G6PD deficiency may indicate the need for this test.
The G6PD test is a simple blood test with minimal risks, similar to any standard blood draw.
Management includes avoiding triggers such as certain medications, foods, and infections that can cause hemolysis.
Early detection in newborns can prevent severe jaundice and related complications by guiding appropriate care and dietary adjustments.
