ANTENNA-IMPREGNATED FABRICS FOR RECUMBENT HEIGHT MEASUREMENT
TS-062493 —
Children whose heights or growth rates fall outside of the normal range can be identified as having short stature (less than the 3rd percentile) or tall stature (above the 97th percentile) or as having abnormal growth velocity. Serial height measurements over time are key to identifying these patt…
