Abstract:
Propionic acidemia (PA) occurs at a higher incidence within the Amish; however, sensitivity of newborn screening and its impact on long-term clinical outcomes has not been reported in this population. This study reviewed screening data and health records of 20 Wisconsin Amish patients diagnosed with PA. Newborn screening did not identify all cases; however, early detection did offer appreciable long-term protection from neurological sequelae. This is the first report summarizing PA cases within the Amish.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...
