Research Question:
Prevention:
In children (birth to 7 yr.), do population-focused strategies
reduce blood lead levels and sequela? What are the strategies for
primary prevention?
Treatment:
Do population-focused treatment strategies influence the
incidence of developmental delays in children age 0 to 7 yr., who
have lead poisoning (blood lead levels of >10 mcg/ml).
