Summary
This study looks at whether whole genome sequencing (a complete read of a person's DNA) can diagnose genetic diseases in newborns in intensive care more quickly than standard tests. About 400 newborns with suspected genetic conditions will take part. The goal is to see if faster diagnosis leads to better care, shorter hospital stays, and lower costs.
