Neonatal Screening for Hypothyroidism by TSH Determination in Dried Bloodhormone deficiency may minimize its deleterious effect. Therefore, timely detection is of great importance. Unfortunately, clinical recognition of hypothyroidism is difficult or even impossible in the neonatal period. Hormone determinations, in contrast, allow the establishment of the diagnosis with

These figures agree with those reported for the prevalence of hypothyroidism in children in Holland (De Jonge 1977) and Sweden (Aim et al. 1978). Our results are very different. In a population of about 5000 newborns, we have

Owing to the difficulty in establishing an early clinical diagnosis, laboratory screening programs to detect neonatal hypothyroidism have been recommended (Fisher et al. 1976).
