RESUMEN
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends universal hemoglobin screening for iron deficiency anemia using hemoglobin <110 g/L at the 1-year-old well child visit. Our retrospective study suggests the need for combined hemoglobin and serum ferritin iron deficiency screening and raising the diagnostic serum ferritin threshold to 24-25 µg/L.

RESUMEN
An ongoing challenge has been determining clinically relevant serum ferritin cut-offs in the diagnosis of iron deficiency in children aged 1-3 years. We identified 2 potential clinically relevant serum ferritin cut-off values through their association with clinically important cut-off of hemoglobin as the indicator of anemia.
