How to calculate the anaemia level (any, mild, moderate, severe) as per new WHO cutoffs of haemoglobin in NFHS-2. For NFHS-3, 4, and 5, the variable v457 (anaemia level) is used. However, no such variable is yet available for NFHS-2. Do we need to create anaemia levels ourselves using s902(haemoglobin levels), or is there any other way available?
