[Anemia in 1-year old infants--still a problem?].
The results of a retrospective study of routine measurement of haemoglobin at the examination of one-year-old children at Grøland mother and child clinic during 1989-91 showed that 37% of the children had anaemia. There was no difference between immigrants and the European population. There was no correlation between anaemia and sex in either of the population groups. This may imply that routine haemoglobin measurement should be generally introduced as part of the regular control of one-year-old children.
