Salt Iodization
MICS3 Data Analysis and Report Writing
Background
• IDD is the world’s leading cause of preventable mental retardation and impaired psychomotor development in young children
• In its most extreme form, iodine deficiency causes cretinism
• It also significantly raises the risks of stillbirth and miscarriage for pregnant women
Background
• IDD is most commonly and visibly associated with goitre
• IDD takes its greatest toll in impaired mental growth and development, contributing in turn to poor school performance, reduced intellectual ability, and impaired work performance
International Goals & Targets
To achieve sustainable elimination of iodine deficiency by 2005
Definition of Indicator
Percentage of households consuming adequately iodized salt (> 15 parts per million)
Numerator: Number of households with salt testing 15 parts per million or more of potassium iodide/iodate
Denominator: Total number of households surveyed
Methodological Issues
• Standard cut-offs for iodine concentration (> 15 parts per million)
• Potassium iodate or potassium iodide
• Comparability of estimates over time – production vs. consumption estimates– parts per million cut-offs
Methodological Issues
• Interpret with caution if salt was not tested in >10% of households
• Households with no salt in home are now included in the distribution
• If a household has salt but it is not tested, these households are omitted from the denominator
