Scope
What is the prevalence of anaemia in the general population?
Definition
| Rate (age, sex ratio) | Context (population size studied, location, date data taken, end-point measured) | Definition of end-point | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|
| pre-school age: 21.7% pregnant women: 25.1% non-pregnant women: 19% |
Worldwide, 1993-2005, anaemia | Haemoglobin threshold (g/l) Children (0.50–4.99 yrs) 110 Children (5.00–11.99 yrs) 115 Children (12.00–14.99 yrs) 120 Non-pregnant women (≥15.00 yrs) 120 Pregnant women 110 Men (≥15.00 yrs) 130 |
[1] |
| Females, 17-38yrs iron deficiency = 19.3 % borderline iron status = 11.4 %. |
n=543, Clermont-Ferrand (France), iron status | iron deficient (serum ferritin <15µg/L) iron depletion borderline (serum ferritin 15–20 µg/L) iron replete (serum ferritin > 20 µg/L). |
[2] |
| Europe = 10% | Estimated prevalence (%) of anaemia (1990-1995) by WHO Region based on haemoglobin concentration | See previous WHO definition | [3] |
| 9-12 months iron deficiency = 14.0% iron deficiency anaemia = 9.4%. |
Estonia, iron deficiency and iron deficiency anaemia | Anaemia was defined when haemoglobin level was lower than 105 g/L, and iron deficiency when ferritin level and mean corpuscular volume were lower than 12 mcg/L and 74 fL, respectively. | [4] |
| 8 months – 15 years iron deficiency = 14% iron deficiency anaemia = 2.9% |
n=3100, Northern Greece, iron deficiency and iron deficiency anaemia | [5] | |
| Adults Iron deficiency anaemia = 2.8-8.9/1000 person years |
Netherlands, iron deficiency anaemia | [6] | |
| Women 40-70yrs In 1984 pre-menopausal women median ferritin level = 43 mcg/L, post-menopausal women median ferritin level = 75 mcg/L In 1994 pre-menopausal women median ferritin level = 39 mcg/L, post-menopausal women median ferritin level = 93 mcg/L Small + depleted iron stores Pre-menopausal women 1984 = 35.8%, 1994 = 41.0% Post-menopausal women 1984 = 9.7%, 1994 = 7.4% |
n=1221-1261, Denmark, 1983-1984 and 1993-1994, iron status | depleted iron stores = ferritin < 16 mcg/L small + depleted iron stores = ferritin ≤32 microg/L iron deficiency anaemia = ferritin <13 microg/L and haemoglobin <5th percentile for iron replete women |
[7] |
| Iron depletion concerns 10-30% of menstruating women and iron deficiency anaemia 1.5 to 14%. In pregnant women, the prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia is 6 to 30%. In children, the prevalence of depleted iron stores varies from 2 to 48% and anaemia from 2 to 4% according to age group and country. In adolescents, prevalences are respectively 5-43% and 7-8%. In adult men, the prevalence of depleted iron stores varies from 0 to 3%. |
