Iron Status Pregnant Women and Infants: Research Needs for Screening and Supplementation Strategies in the US (Day 1)
The workshop outcome will be the identification and prioritization of research gaps and needs.
To develop research recommendations focused on clarifying the benefit and/or harms associated with (a) screening pregnant women and infants (6-24 mos.) for iron deficiency and (b) supplementing replete pregnant women and infants (6-24 mos.) with iron. In 2015 these preventive activities were determined by USPSTF to lack sufficient evidence to demonstrate benefit or harm.
