“The iodine overload not only alters neonatal screening for congenital hypothyroidism by temporarily blocking the neonate’s thyroid, and invalidates the prevalence of neonatal hyperthyrotropinemia as an indicator of iodine deficiency, but may even adversely affect the brain and inner ear in that stage so sensitive to thyroid hormones”. “Iodine-based
antiseptics can not be used for the skin antisepsis of the mother and/or the newborn because they cause iatrogenesis.”
