This is why newborn screening is an important part of your baby’s healthcare journey from birth. Early screening results allow timely treatment plans and help prevent serious complications.
At Hanoi French Hospital (HFH), parents can choose from three newborn screening packages:
BASIC PACKAGE
Focuses on the 5 most essential and common tests in newborns, helping to detect early risks of:
- G6PD deficiency – which may lead to severe jaundice and hemolysis
- Congenital hypothyroidism – causing delayed physical and intellectual development
- Congenital adrenal hyperplasia – which may result in serious electrolyte imbalance
- Galactosemia and Biotinidase deficiency – increasing the risk of seizures, infection, and developmental delay if not treated promptly
ADVANCED PACKAGE
Includes all tests in the Basic Package, plus:
- Screening for 55 congenital metabolic disorders using MSMS, providing a deeper assessment of the newborn’s metabolic system right from birth
PREMIUM PACKAGE
Offers the most comprehensive screening scope with:
- All contents of the Advanced Package
- SCID screening – severe combined immunodeficiency
- Screening for 6 Lysosomal storage diseases using MSMS
Screening is performed gentlyto minimise discomfort for your baby. When the child is 48–72 hours old, a small drop of blood is taken from the heel in a sterile, international-standard environment. Once results are available, a Neonatology specialist will provide a clear explanation, offer guidance, and accompany the family in follow-up or treatment if needed, ensuring complete peace of mind.

Mothers who deliver under the HFH Maternity Package will receive a 700,000 VND discount when registering for any Newborn Screening Package for your baby.
