“…A study done by Ahmad N, et al to test the different types of screening methods to evaluate congenital hypothyroidism. 6 They concluded that cord blood TSH assay as an initial screening test , had a higher specificity and sensitivity for the diagnosis of primary hypothyroidism. In the present study also it is noted that cord blood TSH has high sensitivity and specificity which correlates with study of Ahmad N et al…”

“…7 Three major strategies have been implemented worldwide for NBS of CH: blood T4 assay followed by TSH assay if blood T4 value is <10th percentile, initial blood TSH assay, and simultaneous T4 and TSH assays. 8 Since the 1990s, most countries, except the USA, Israel, The Netherlands, and Japan, have adopted a primary TSH or simultaneous measurement of T4 and TSH screening strategy for CH. 9 Unlike measuring initial blood TSH levels, the simultaneous measurement of T4 and TSH screening detects both subclinical and mild cases of CH.…”

“…9 Unlike measuring initial blood TSH levels, the simultaneous measurement of T4 and TSH screening detects both subclinical and mild cases of CH. 8 As a result, the increased sensitivity of the screening has increased the global incidence of CH. 10 In recent years, several countries have adopted NBS for CH in preterm, low-birth-weight newborns; newborns exposed to TSH suppression from drugs; newborns from multiple pregnancies; or newborns admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit.…”

“…Раннє виявлення патології і призначення замісної гормональної терапії дозволяє попередити у хворих розумову відсталість, відставання фізичного і нервово-психічного розвитку, метаболічний синдром [46]. При народженні клінічні симптоми вродженого гіпотиреозу є недостатньо специфічними для ранньої діагностики, що доводить актуальність проведення масового скринінгу новонароджених на цю патологію [1,22]. Крім того важливим моментом є діагностика так званого транзиторного гіпотиреозу, причиною якого можуть бути йододефіцит матері, прийом лікарських препаратів, аутоімунні процеси, недоношенність [8].…”
