Overview
According to the Endocrine Society and the European Society for Pediatric Endocrinology, screening for cretinism is recommended in all neonates. Screening is important as early detection of cretinism will help in preventing the disease consequences as the mental retardation.
Screening
- According to the Endocrine Society and the European Society for Pediatric Endocrinology, screening for congenital hypothyroidism (cretinism) is recommended in all neonates. Screening is recommended because early detection of cretinism and early treatment will prevent the consequences of the disease which may be mental retardation.[1]
- In a worldwide view of strategies, screening of cretinism is been held in many countries including the United States. The screening helped in detecting the newborn with hypothyroidism. These cases are around 2000 annually in the united states and 12,000 worldwide.[2]
- The screening of cretinism can be performed through the following laboratory tests:[3][4]
- Measuring the level of thyroxine hormone (T4)
- Blood TSH assay
- Both thyroxine and TSH levels
