Dear colleagues,
I’m looking for a standard method to perform anthropometric measurements among newborn infants.
Does anybody have experience in the assessment of neonatal anthropometry.
Thank you in advance
Ron Clijsen
Dear Ron,
Maybe the “INTERGROWTH-21st Anthropometry Manual” will help you on the subject:
