Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Maternal Components 1.Current excretion values of iodine in pregnancy in third trimester 2.To identify mothers with iodine deficiency/excess /normal status 3.To identify mothers with euthyroid , hypo and hyperthyroid status. 4.Percentage of iodised salt consumed Neonatal Components 1.Newborns growth profile parameters 2.Neonatal thyroid functioning profiles will help to identify euthyroid, hypo and hyperthyroid status Timepoint: For maternal outcomes time points will be from 34 weeks to 39 weeks of gestation and again at time of delivery upto 2 weeks postpartum.For newborns timepoint will be initially from day of birth till 15 days and again at 1 year of age for neurological growth and developmental assessments .

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Research Project will help to analyse Indian pregnant women urinary iodine excretory reference ranges thyroid profile reference ranges in both physiological and pathological conditions. Regarding neonates effects of maternal thyroid abnormalities on growth rates and development at birth will be highlighted.Timepoint: For mothers at delivery and at 6 weeks postpartum and 1 year after delivery.For newborns at birth , 6 weeks and at 1 year of age for followup and neurodevelopmental assessments respectively.
