Description
NHANES is a national database of health information created and managed by the National
Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) of the U.S. Centers for Disease Prevention and
Control. The NCHS is the nation's principle health statistics agency, and the

for health policy and programs. Pharmacoepidemiologic data available from NHANES includes
