Notes:
1. The table below demonstrates the number of children, less than 72 months of age, tested
and determined to have blood lead levels (BLLs) in each result range.
2. BLLs reflect the highest confirmed test during the year if a confirmed test exists for the child,
or the highest test for the year, otherwise.
3. Units are µg/dL or micrograms per deciliter of blood.
4. Unconfirmed BLLs are defined as tests for children who had an elevated capillary test and did
not receive an confirmatory test within 90 days.
5. Only cities with 500 or more children tested in 2015 are listed.
6. Table may be updated as corrected laboratory test data are shared with the Healthy Homes
and Lead Poisoning Prevention Program.
