新生儿发汗试验阳性对囊性纤维化筛选的作用

Sweat testing in newborns positive to neonatal screening for cystic fibrosis

囊性纤维化的新生儿中汗液氯化物浓度】40mmol/L的并不多见,应该对其进行随访。新生儿汗液氯化物浓度的百分含量对囊性纤维化的筛选有积极意义。

Sweat chloride concentrations above 40 mmol/l are unusual in newborns screened for cystic fibrosis and should be followed up. Centiles of sweat chloride concentrations in newborns positive to cystic fibrosis neonatal screening are presented. There are no significant correlations between age at sweat testing and sweat chloride concentration or quantity of sweat collected.
