C
Early identification of hypothyroidism is basic to the prevention of mental retardation in the child. Community referral is appropriate after a diagnosis is made. With early identification and treatment with thyroid hormone replacement, mental retardation is prevented. Facilitation of parentchild bonding is a consideration for all newborn infants.
