First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 32 times

Summary

This study provides advanced genetic testing and virtual doctor consultations for seriously ill newborns in Texas hospitals with fewer resources, especially near the Texas-Mexico border. Researchers will test a virtual consultation tool called Consultagene and gather feedback from healthcare providers. About 200 infants under 90 days old with suspected genetic disorders will receive rapid whole genome sequencing. The goal is to see if this approach helps diagnose rare diseases faster than usual care.
