A new hemoglobin cutoff value proposed by the World Health Organization: Its impact on the prevalence of anemia in children under 2 years of age.
Objective. Comparing the prevalence and severity of anemia according to the WHO 2011 and WHO 2024 cutoff points. Population and methods. Retrospective cross-sectional study. Hemoglobin data from children aged 6 to 24 months who underwent controls between 2017 and 2024 were analyzed. The prevalence and severity of anemia were established in all children, categorized by age group and sex. Results. A total of 1843 children were included, with 47.7% being girls. The prevalences of anemia were 46.9% (WHO, 2011) and 25.8% (WHO, 2024); they were higher in the 6-12 months group, with no differences according to sex. No child presented with severe anemia. Conclusion. Despite the decrease in the new cutoff point, anemia remains a significant public health issue affecting approximately 1 in 4 children aged 6 to 24 months who have accessed the public health system, in our region. Most of the cases were mild anemias.
