Abstract
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is prevalent in the African American population. We identified eighteen G6PD-deficient samples (9%) in a study of residual, de-identified whole blood specimens from 200 African American pediatric patients using a point-of-care instrument. This highlights the possibility of a rapid time to result for G6PD testing, which can be valuable in some clinical scenarios.
