Conclusions
Considering the fact that, in our environment,
data on anemia in pregnant
women are accurate and show a great variation
in different places, the present study
stands out as it provides an important point
of reference for the city of Maringá-PR in
particular and for the country in general.
The reason for this is that it assessed a
representative sample of pregnant women
cared for in all primary health units of this
city.
