A Plea for the Newborn Diagnosis of Hb S-Hereditary Persistence of Fetal Hemoglobin.

Hemoglobin - 1 May 2017

Serjeant Graham R, Serjeant Beryl E, Hambleton Ian R, Oakley Matthew, Thein Swee Lay, Clark Barnaby

Abstract excerpt

The gene for hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) in the Caribbean is much more common than previously estimated. To avoid labeling persons with the benign syndrome Hb S (HBB: c.20A>T)/HPFH as a disease and wasting scarce resources, parental studies are recommended when newborn screening reveals a pattern consistent with an SS phenotype.
