Question pretext

This module is to be administered to all women 15 through 49 years of age. We would like to perform a simple test to determine whether or not you are anemic. The test would require us to use a sterile, disposable lancet to prick your finger to produce a few drops of blood. Would you give us permission to perform this test? If permission given, perform the HemoCue test.
