CDC recommends testing blood for lead exposure. There are often no apparent symptoms when a child is exposed to lead. Because of this, a blood test is the best way to determine if a child has been exposed to lead.

How do I get my child tested for lead?

A finger-prick or heel-prick (capillary) test is usually the first step to determine if a child has lead in their blood. While finger-prick tests can provide fast results, they also can produce higher results if lead on the skin is captured in the sample.

What is current CDC recommended exposure limit for lead in children's blood?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently updated its blood lead reference value (BLRV) from 5 µg/dL to 3.5 µg/dL in response to the Lead Exposure Prevention and Advisory Committee (LEPAC) recommendation made on May 14, 2021.

Is lead poisoning reportable in Texas?

Texas law requires reporting of blood lead tests, elevated and non-elevated, for children 14 years or younger.
