Pediatric Growth Assessment

Pediatric growth assessment is a process used to monitor a child's physical development over time. It involves measuring height, weight, and head circumference, which are then compared to standardized growth charts for age and gender. These charts help medical professionals determine if a child's growth is on track, identify potential health issues, and ensure they are developing properly. Regular assessments allow for early detection of growth-related concerns, helping to guide parents and caregivers in supporting their child's health and well-being.
