A parent of a newborn asks the nurse why a heel stick is being done on the baby to test for phenylketonuria (PKU). The nurse responds that
1. Screening for PKU is required and detection can be done before symptoms develop.
2. The infant has high-risk characteristics.
3. Because the infant was born by cesarean, a PKU test is necessary.
4. Because the infant was born by vaginal delivery, a PKU is recommended.
