Indeed, many well-infant screening protocols incorporate an outpatient rescreening within 1 month of hospital discharge to minimize the number of infants referred for follow-up audiological and medical evaluation.
Some groups have demonstrated that current screening protocols fail to identify many at-risk pregnancies (2, 3).
This has led many transplant centers to implement anti-HLA antibodies screening protocols after transplantation, although the target population for these protocols remains matter of discussion [ 9].
Many of the drugs identified to activate either wild-type or mutant p53 function arose from screening protocols using p53 sequence-specific binding and consequent reporter activation [19].
Many standard hybridoma-screening protocols make use of recombinant proteins immobilized on solid supports, which may significantly alter protein conformation [ 8].
We must redesign screening protocols to reduce overdiagnosis or stop population-wide screening completely.
While breast cancer has screening protocols like mammograms and breast self-examination, there is no reliable screening for ovarian cancer.
Effective screening requires the use of standardized screening protocols.
Many of the studies were clinical audits conducted in community health centres or ACCHS and thus the findings could be influenced by the screening protocols in these health services.
These screening protocols need to be locally relevant.
