Congenital adrenal hyperplasia: should nationwide screening be implemented in Thailand?

A project to establish the Thailand National Neonatal Screening Program was started in 1996 with the objective of screening every newborn for congenital hypothyroidism and phenylketonuria. Over a million newborns were screened and over 430 abnormal cases were detected. A study was also conducted to determine the feasibility of including CAH screening in the program.
