Several programs have investigated psychometric outcome in infants judged to have more
severe congenital hypothyroidism. The screening
program in England, Wales and Northern Ireland
reported that infants with pre-treatment serum T4
<3.3 g/dl (<42.8 nmol/l) had a global IQ 11.6
points lower than infants with serum T4 >3.3 g/
dl43. The Quebec Screening Network compared IQ
outcome in a cohort of severely affected and
moderately affected infants, as judged by a serum

T4 or FT4
TSH
Measurement of serum TSH is the single most
sensitive test to monitor L-T4 treatment. However,
a TSH test alone is not adequate to monitor
treatment of congenital hypothyroidism. After
initiation of L-T4, serum TSH may take several
weeks or longer to fall into the normal range. Some
infants may manifest a persistently elevated TSH
level, despite other evidence, both clinical and
biochemical, that the T4 dose is correct (see below,
patients with altered hypothalamic-pituitarythyroid axis feedback). Thus, in general it is safest
to measure both T4 or FT4 and TSH levels to make
correct decisions about dose adjustments. It is
important to compare the result to the normal range
for age. Measurement of serum T3 or free T3 (FT3)
is not useful in monitoring treatment, as these tests
may be normal, despite a low T4 or FT4 and
elevated TSH level.
Frequency of monitoring thyroid function tests
When treating infants with congenital hypothyroidism, it is important to carry out thyroid
function tests more frequently than in, for example,
older children with acquired hypothyroidism. Infants
undergo rapid growth and development in the first
2-3 years of life, and more frequent dose changes
may be necessary. Further, during this time of
