pubmed:abstractText |
Of 254 children who were 1 to 6 years of age and were tested at two major inner-city emergency departments, 65% had no record of previous lead screening in the previous 30 months, and 71% (97/137) and 50% (58/117), respectively, had blood lead levels > or = 0.48 mumol/L (10 micrograms/dl). The emergency department may be an appropriate resource for lead screening of selected inner-city children.
