Hi,

I am putting together an indicator reference sheet for Women's Anemia Status and have a question about how it is calculated in pregnant women. I saw in at least on DHS report that the CDC 1998 criteria are used. The CDC criteria include different cutoffs for women at various gestational ages. Does the DHS indicator take gestational age cutoffs into consideration for anemia in pregnant women? Thanks for your help!

Emily
