Background: Anemia in pregnancy accounts for one fifth of maternal deaths worldwide and is a major factor
responsible for low birth weight. In India, 16% of maternal deaths are attributed to anemia. The association
between anemia and adverse pregnancy outcome, higher incidence of preterm and low–birth weight deliveries
have been demonstrated. However, high prevalence of anemia among pregnant women persists in India
despite the availability of effective, low-cost interventions for prevention and treatment. A knowledge of the
sociodemographic factors associated with anemia will help to formulate multipronged strategies to attack this
important public health problem in pregnancy.
