3. Impact Inherited Metabolic DisordersAccount for 5-6 % of SIDS casesRequire Life-long care !Now reaching Childbearing AgeIncreased Maternal risk of HELLP syndrome or Fatty Liver of PregnancyAdult Sequelae – Learning problems, Vision loss, Cardiomyopathy, Peripheral Neuropathy, Chronic Liver disease (?), Depression & Anxiety disorders, pregnancy

4. Impact Inherited Metabolic DisordersChildren with metabolic disorders are hospitalized 3-4 times more often than other childrenAccount for 12% of Pediatric Admissions (50% of Pediatric Admissions have a Genetic Disease) Account for 55% of overnight staysIncrease LOS on average of 3 daysIncur 184% of Inpatient costs4-5% higher in hospital mortality rates40% of overall Childhood mortality related to Genetic diseases

5. Importance of Definitive CareCostly, poor outcomes when not treatedCollectively, not that rareMore and more are treatableFull characterization can be used for future Prenatal DiagnosisProvides opportunity to future care planningLong-term follow provides valuable natural history information that can be used to develop therapies

15. Scope of the Problem60% male68% Non-Hispanic white45% have “Medical Home” resources84% have normal activities disrupted42% have thought about shifting care62% have “some knowledge” of anticipated health problems34% have some knowledge of insurance issues
