   Prevalence of anaemia in pregnant women (aged 15-49)(%)
QoG Code: who_anpreg

Percentage of women aged 15 − 49 years with a haemoglobin concentration less than 120 g/L for non-pregnant women and lactating women, and less than 110 g/L for pregnant women, adjusted for altitude and smoking. Data on the prevalence of anaemia and/or mean haemoglobin in women of reproductive age, collected between 1995 and 2019 were obtained from 408 population-representative data sources from 124 countries worldwide. A Bayesian hierarchical mixture model was used to estimate haemoglobin distributions and systematically address missing data, non-linear time trends, and representativeness of data sources. Full details on data sources are available on the GHO Anaemia page. Full details on statistical methods may be found in the publication: Finucane MM, Paciorek CJ, Stevens GA EM.
