摘要

Retesting for hypothyroidism at 36 weeks of corrected gestational age in infants with VLBL and normal NBS could identify infants who require ongoing surveillance until thyroid function has been definitively ascertained. Adjusting NBS TSH cutoffs is not a valid option for identifying potential hypothyroidism in infants with VLBW because of lack of sensitivity and unacceptable false-positive and false-negative rates.
