Description
Summary:Congenital hypothyroidism is one of the main causes of mental retardation which can be prevented. Research in 2020 found that the prevalence of congenital hypothyroidism in Indonesia was 1:1167. During the previous 18 years of implementation of the Congenital Hypothyroidism Screening Program (CHSP), it was found that only 4,6% of newborns. This study aims to conduct a literature review to identify problems and obtain information on improving the implementation of congenital hypothyroidism screening programs in Indonesia. This research was carried out between November-December 2021 and consists of a review of a range of research articles and journals which have been published within the last decade. Several studies have shown that during the implementation of the CHSP, several obstacles were found which hindered the effectiveness of the program, namely the lack of training for health workers, sources of financing which have not been fully borne by the center, accuracy of collection and sample delivery, and less than optimal management function in regulating the implementation of the program thus a more in-depth evaluation needed, especially in terms of economic benefits and the level of effectiveness of the screening program.
