• Description:
  The National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) are a series of surveys designed to collect data on the health and nutritional status of the U .S. population. NHANES is unique in its ability to examine public health issues that can best be addressed through physical and laboratory examinations of the U .S. population. NHANES collects information about a wide range of topics, from the prevalence of infectious diseases to risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Beginning in 1999, NHANES became a continuous and annual survey. The sampling plan for each year follows a complex, stratified, multistage, probability cluster design to select a representative sample of the non institutionalized, civilian U.S. population.
