Description
This new volume outlines methods of monitoring growth and weight gain, and essential clinical service.
The alternative methods described here will be of particular use to workers in Third World countries where the cost of scales as well as illiteracy and cultural differences make weight-plotting especially difficult.
Readers will find outlines of such innovative methods as the use of arm growth tape, simplified techniques of weight plotting, and helpful algorithms for decision-making.
Among the book's appendices is a point system for comparative evaluation of weighing scales.
Many illustrations help clarify the material presented in the text, making this book valuable in the classroom as well as in the field.
