1. The table above contains data for children less than 72 months (6 years) of age at the time of test.
2. To be confirmed, a test must use a venous blood sample and not be analyzed on a point-of-care device. Capillary samples cannot be confirmed, regardless of how the blood is analyzed.
3. Blood lead levels above reflect the highest confirmed test if a confirmed test exists for the child, or the highest test for the year, otherwise.
