*Blood sample on filter paper should be obtained from heel puncture preferably between two and four days after birth.
*Screening programs should be done using a two-tier protocol (initial immunoassay with further evaluation of positive tests by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry.
*Most affected neonates have concentrations greater than 3500 ng/dL (105 nmol/L).<ref name="pmid2208708">{{cite journal |vauthors=Gonzalez RR, Mäentausta O, Solyom J, Vihko R |title=Direct solid-phase time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay of 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone in serum and dried blood spots on filter paper |journal=Clin.
