LabMindAn Interview With Dr. Kelly Doyle: Detecting G6PD Deficiency in ChildrenGlucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a genetic condition that can lead to life-threatening hemolysis in both children and adults. Early and accurate diagnosis is critical, but identifying G6PD deficiency in newborns and young children isn’t always straightforward—most reference intervals are based on adult values, which don’t necessarily apply to pediatric patients. In this interview, Dr. Kelly Doyle, an ARUP medical director of Special Chemistry, Endocrinology, and Mass Spectrometry, shares insights from novel methods to establish pediatric-specific reference intervals.

And second, set up a comprehensive infection control and contact tracing program for ARUP’s approximately 2,500 on-site workforce members.

Fee-for-service payment models cause clinics to maximize the volume of visits, leaving doctors feeling like hamsters running on a wheel, and patients feeling rushed and ignored. Medical and preventive health needs are shortchanged, resulting in poor health outcomes and enormous downstream costs. A decade ago, Dr. Peter Weir decided to solve this problem for ARUP’s employees and their dependents. He took ARUP’s employee health clinic and transformed it into a full-service medical home, untethered from fee-for-service reimbursement. Not only is the clinic enormously popular with ARUP’s workforce and their...
