Related to genetic testing. Sensitive tests, however, will sometimes be positive in individuals who do not have the disorder; that is, false-positive tests do occur. For that reason, a positive screening test must be followed by a diagnostic test. Newborn screening provides an excellent example. Most newborns in developed countries are screened for a variety of genetic diseases, most rare. Recent advances in laboratory technology have allowed greatly expanded newborn screening with little increase in cost, and newborns in some states are tested for more than 40 rare conditions. Each positive screening test must be followed by a diagnostic test. Fortunately, most positive screening tests are falsely positive, but the cost of follow-up testing is significant both in terms of parental anxiety and financial burden (DeLuca, Zanni, Bonhomme, et al., 2013). Diagnostic tests are performed to confirm a diagnosis when a child is suspected of having a specific disorder based on clinical presentation or screening test results. [Show More]
