    Abstract:
    The results of five years activity of the National Register of children with Congenital Hypothyroidism (NRCH) have been evaluated. NRCH was established in Italy in 1987, as a pilot project of Health Ministry. All Italian Centers in charge of the screening, treatment and follow-up of CH are involved in the program. The results have provided further epidemiological informations about CH in Italy and have evidenced some aspects in the screening organization which had to be improved. Discussion of Register data in annual meetings has recently allowed to obtain an improvement especially for the beginning of treatment and the used dose of therapy.
