Objective: Analyze CCH detection program results from 3 Autonomous Communities: TSH and total T4 (TT4) in dried blood spot (DBS) at initial screening (48 hours of life) and at retesting. Describe the characteristics of neonates with screening compatible with CCH. Consider whether TBG deficiency (TBGD) is an added difficulty in said study.Materials and Methods: Retrospective study (May 2016-May 2020) of all neonates ≥33 weeks and/or ≥1500 gr...
