- Abstract
Neonatal screening for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) identifies a certain proportion of newborns with transient moderate elevation of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP). These children require regular follow-up until normalization of their 17-OHP levels. We investigated the possibility of reducing the individuals' recall rates by using genetic methods on their original neonatal dried blood spots.
