- Apgar Score: A quick test performed at 1 and 5 minutes after birth to assess the newborn's condition.
- Screening Tests: Blood tests to screen for metabolic and genetic disorders.
- Imaging Studies: Ultrasound, X-rays, and MRI to identify structural abnormalities.
- Newborn Hearing Screening: To detect hearing impairments early.
