Hemoglobin concentration and anemia diagnosis in venous and capillary blood: biological basis and policy implications

Volume: 1450, Issue: 1, Pages: 172 - 189

Abstract
Anemia is an important public health challenge and accurate prevalence estimates are needed for program planning and tracking progress.

Several factors influence hemoglobin (Hb) concentration, including human and analytic error,...
