MUSKEGON, Mich. (WZZM) - Welcoming a new baby brings a lot of stress, from picking out a name to making sure you have everything you need, and of course hoping they're healthy.
A lakeshore hospital is checking one more thing off the list for parents to worry about. Mercy Health in Muskegon has started a new program that screens every newborn for possible undetected critical congenital heart defects.
"They can look very good in the first 24 hours, but then they can suddenly get very ill two to three days after we see them," said Dr. Michael Galvin, the head of pediatrics for Mercy Health.
