📋 Clinical Anthropometric Summary

WHO Standards

🥣 Nutritional Staging

Enter child's age, height, and weight to generate anthropometric staging.

🎯 Genetic Channel

Enter parental heights to evaluate Mid-Parental Target Height and Familial Short Stature.

🦴 Body Proportions

Enter Upper/Lower segment or Arm Span to screen for skeletal dysplasias or Marfanoid habitus.

Pediatric Growth Assessment Guidelines:

0 to 5 Years: Evaluated against WHO Child Growth Standards (2006). Stunting = Height-for-Age < -2SD; Wasting = Weight-for-Height < -2SD (SAM if < -3SD).
5 to 18 Years: Evaluated against IAP 2015 Revised References with Asian Indian adult equivalent BMI cutoffs (Overweight 23 kg/m², Obesity 27 kg/m²).
Mid-Parental Target Centile Track: Calculated via Tanner formulas (Boys: (Father + Mother + 13)/2 ± 6.5 cm; Girls: (Father - 13 + Mother)/2 ± 6.5 cm). The purple dashed line displays the child's genetic potential trajectory across age to distinguish Familial Short Stature (FSS) (normal velocity parallel to parental centile) from pathological short stature.
