The AnthroCalc app calculates percentiles and Z-scores for
length/height weight weight-for-length/height body-mass index and
head circumference for typically growing children (using WHO or CDC
references); for children with a number of syndromes (Turner Down
Prader–Willi Russell–Silver Noonan and Klinefelter); and for
preterm infants (using Fenton 2013 and 2025 INTERGROWTH-21st or
Olsen references). The app also performs specialized calculations
of blood pressure (using NIH 2004 or AAP 2017 references) extended
obesity measures waist circumference arm circumference triceps and
subscapular skinfolds target (midparental) height predicted adult
height and height velocity for healthy children. Citations are
provided for each reference range used for the calculations.
Patient-specific data derived from WHO and CDC growth charts can be
stored on device for later retrieval.
