Rainbow Pedi 1000
Newborn & Pediatric Screening
Identify about 1000 different diseases that start in newborns or young children
Start Smart
A Lifetime of Care in One Test!
Unlock a Healthier Future for Your Baby with Whole Genome Sequencing!
Why Start at Birth?
Your baby’s DNA is like a roadmap to their health.
Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) can uncover genetic risks for rare diseases, allergies, and even how they process certain medications—right from the start!
Early knowledge means early action, giving your baby the best chance for a happy, healthy life.
Genetic disorders can cause many health problems for kids
About half of the cases of blindness, deafness, heart defects and severe mental disabilities in children are due to genetic disorders. These disorders also account for 40-50% of childhood deaths.
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is a powerful tool that can help doctors find out what's wrong in children showing symptoms that might be related to genetic issues.
Why WGS?
Early Detection: WGS can find over many rare genetic conditions that might not show up in traditional tests. This means doctors can spot problems early and start treatment sooner.
Expanded Screening: Traditional newborn screening only checks for a few conditions. WGS can screen for thousands of potential genetic issues all at once, giving a more comprehensive health check.
Personalized Care: Knowing a baby's genetic profile helps doctors tailor medical care to their specific needs, which can improve overall health.
A Gift for Life
By screening your baby’s genome, you’re giving them the gift of a lifetime—better health, tailored care, and the chance to avoid preventable conditions.
Screen Early, Live Healthy!
Rainbow Pedi 1000 screens for 1,000+ baby diseases
by reading all their DNA, detecting rare conditions, developmental risks, and medication sensitivities early
A healthier future starts here!
Newborn & Pediatric Screening
Brain and Nerve Problems: Autism spectrum disorder, language issues, difficulty in learning and thinking, epilepsy, developmental delays. Over 2500 genes involved.
Metabolism Issues: Involves problems with metabolism.
Heart Conditions: Heart defects, sudden death, heart rhythm problems. Over 2000 genes.
Childhood Cancers: Cancers in kids.
Allergy and Immune System Issues: Eczema, food sensitivity and frequent infections.
Hormone Problems: Early diabetes (MODY), short height, puberty disorders. Over 1000 genes.
Muscle Weakness: Trouble walking, climbing stairs, fall frequently and respiratory issues
For Screening of
Developmental & Language Delay, Intellectual Disability
Epilepsy, Growth and Congenital Abnormality
Whole genome sequencing looks at many types of DNA changes that might be causing health problems.
It’s very good at finding answers for patients with complicated symptoms.
Getting an accurate genetic diagnosis reduces misdiagnosis, helps doctors understand what to expect in the future, avoid unnecessary tests or surgeries, and take better care of patients.
For Physicians - Report Includes
Clinically-actionable newborn and pediatric disorders
Copy number variants equivalent to Clinical Microarray test findings (CMA)
Fragile X
Repeat expansions (Includes Huntington's Disease)
Uniparental Disomy (Trio)
Difficult-to-Detect Variants. Regions of Homozygosity
Safe, Simple, Life-Changing
WGS is a one-time test that uses a simple saliva sample
It’s safe, quick, and can provide lifelong health insights for your baby
and even your family!
This test helps find out if your child is at risk for over 1,000 diseases that can show up early in life.
The test follows the same method used in newborn screening (BabySeq) at Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School.
The test looks at over 1,600 genes linked to more than 1,000 childhood diseases.
Testing Process and Reports
Whole Genome Sequencing at 40-80x Depth
Newest genomic and analysis technologies(30 base pairs and 20,000 genes)
Provide a detailed analysis of hard-to-detect, disease-related genetic changes linked to complex neurological and psychiatric disorders, like autism.
Clinical report is issued by a board-certified medical director M.D. and Ph.D. Dual degree holder).
Genetic counseling included (Provided by Australia-registered, board-eligible genetic counselor).
