AnthroCalc

The AnthroCalc (Anthropometric Calculator) app calculates centiles and Z-scores for length/height, weight, weight-for-length/height, body-mass index, waist circumference, head circumference, arm circumference, triceps and subscapular skinfolds, target (mid-parental) height, and height velocity for normal children (using WHO or CDC references); for blood pressure (using NIH 2004 or AAP 2017 references); for children with a number of syndromes (Turner, Down, Prader–Willi, Russell–Silver and Noonan); and for preterm infants (using Fenton or INTERGROWTH-21st references). 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.
