INTRODUCTION: Newborn screening (NBS) programmes vary internationally in their approach to screening. Guidelines for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) screening recommend the use of two-tier testing and gestational age cutoffs to minimise false-positive results. The aims of this study were to describe (1) the approaches; (2) protocols used; and (3) available outcomes for CAH screening internationally.

METHODS: All members of the International Society for Neonatal Screening were asked to describe their CAH NBS protocols, with an emphasis on the use of second-tier testing, 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17OHP) cutoffs, and gestational age and birth weight adjustments. If available, screening outcomes were requested.

RESULTS: Representatives from 23 screening programmes provided data. Most (n = 14; 61%) recommend sampling at 48-72 h of life. Fourteen (61%) use single-tier testing and 9 have a two-tier testing protocol. Gestational age cutoffs are used in 10 programmes, birth weight cutoffs in 3, and a combination of both in 9. One programme does not use either method of adjusting 17OHP cutoffs. Case definition of a positive test and the response to a positive test differed between programmes.

CONCLUSIONS: We have demonstrated significant variation across all aspects of NBS for CAH, including timing, the use of single versus two-tier testing and cutoff interpretation. Collaboration between international screening programmes and implementation of new techniques to improve screen efficacy will facilitate ongoing expansion and quality improvement in CAH NBS.
