Objective: To analyze the confirmed or not-confirmed cases of neonatal screening (CH) screened in the Programa "Primeiros Passos", stratifying them into TSH blood-spot (TSH-BS) ranges.
Materials And Methods: To stratify, in ranges of TSH-BS as a function of TSH serum (TSH-S), the cases called for a confirmatory test from January, 2006 to July, 2009.
Results: Around 37% of the confirmed cases (475) showed TSH-F > 9.
