Abstract
The proportion of insufficient sweat tests after positive newborn screening for cystic fibrosis was determined. Infants ≤ 3 months old had a mean (± standard deviation) rate of 7.2% (± 7.6) (range, 0% to 40%). Collection methods did not affect the rates. The high and variable rates indicate a need for quality improvement.Entities:
