Evaluation of an Intensified Systematic Screening for Congenital Hypothyroidism in Premature Newborns
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
Currently in France, screening for congenital hypothyroidism (CH) in premature infants is done by a single TSH assay on filter paper. However, European recommendations advise repeating the assay within the first month of life.
Our primary objective is to estimate the incidence of CH in preterm infants under 32 weeks of gestational age by applying the European recommendations.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)

The primary objective of the study is to estimate the annual incidence of congenital hypothyroidism among premature infants born before 32 weeks of gestational age, within 15 days of birth, by applying the European recommendations, which consist of performing two repeated tests within the first 15 days.
