- Diagnostic Test: T3-T4-TSH
- Registration Number
- NCT05103774
- Lead Sponsor
- Sohag University
- Brief Summary
Thyroid hormone is critical for normal neurocognitive development in young infants, and even transient hypothyroidism can cause adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. In a population of infants with CHD who already bear a high risk of long-term developmental delay, detection of hypothyroidism, even of a transient nature, may be even more consequential, and routine periodic monitoring of thyroid function may be necessary to reduce the risk of neurodevelopmental disabilities
