Interpreting the results of neonatal tests requires expertise and consideration of multiple factors.
- Normal vs. Abnormal Results: Normal results indicate no immediate concern, but abnormal results require further investigation. - False Positives/Negatives: Some tests may yield false-positive or false-negative results, necessitating repeat testing or additional diagnostic methods. - Clinical Correlation: Abnormal results must be correlated with clinical findings and family history to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.
