Para crianças de 0 a 5 anos de idade (0 a 60 meses completos), a baixa estatura moderada é definida como comprimento / altura para a idade menor que -2 e maior ou igual a -3 desvios padrão da mediana (escore z) dos Padrões de Crescimento Infantil da OMS. No sistema de percentis, isso corresponde ao percentil menor que 2,3 e maior ou igual a 0,1._x000D_ Para crianças de 5 a 19 anos (61 a 228 meses completos), a baixa estatura moderada é definida como comprimento / altura para a idade menor que -2 e maior ou igual a -3 desvios padrão da mediana (escore z) da Referência de crescimento da OMS para crianças em idade escolar e adolescentes . No sistema de percentis, isso corresponde a menor que o percentil 2,3 e maior ou igual a 0,1._x000D_ Ao avaliar o crescimento linear, as medições podem ser baseadas no comprimento reclinado ou na altura em pé. Bebês e crianças com menos de 24 meses de idade devem ser medidos em decúbito dorsal ou deitado (comprimento), enquanto crianças com 24 meses de idade ou mais devem ser medidos em pé (altura). Em crianças de 24 meses ou mais que não conseguem ficar de pé (por exemplo, deficiências, crianças não cooperativas) e são medidas deitadas, a medição do comprimento deve ser convertida para altura subtraindo 0,7 cm (a diferença média entre comprimento e altura nos Padrões de Crescimento Infantil da OMS ). Se a idade não for conhecida, 87 cm podem ser usados como aproximado para 24 meses. | |||

For children aged 0 to 5 years of age (0 to 60 completed months), moderate stunting is defined as length/height-for-age less than -2 and greater or equal than -3 standard deviations of the median (z-score) of the WHO Child Growth Standards. In the percentile system this corresponds to less than percentile 2.3 and greater or equal than percentile 0.1. For children aged 5 to 19 years (61 to 228 completed months), moderate stunting is defined as length/height-for-age less than -2 and greater or equal than -3 standard deviations of the median (z-score) of the WHO Growth Reference for School-aged Children and Adolescents. In the percentile system this corresponds to less than percentile 2.3 and greater or equal than percentile 0.1. When assessing linear growth, measurements can be based on recumbent length or standing height. Infants and children under 24 months of age should be measured supine or lying down (length), while children 24 months of age and older should be measured standing up (height). In children 24 months and older that cannot stand up (e.g., disabilities, uncooperative children) and are measured lying down, the length measurement should be converted to height by subtracting 0.7 cm (the average difference between length and height in the WHO Child Growth Standards). If age is not known, 87 cm can be used as a proxy for 24 months. | |||

For children aged 0 to 5 years of age (0 to 60 completed months), moderate stunting is defined as length/height-for-age less than -2 and greater or equal than -3 standard deviations of the median (z-score) of the WHO Child Growth Standards. In the percentile system this corresponds to less than percentile 2.3 and greater or equal than percentile 0.1. For children aged 5 to 19 years (61 to 228 completed months), moderate stunting is defined as length/height-for-age less than -2 and greater or equal than -3 standard deviations of the median (z-score) of the WHO Growth Reference for School-aged Children and Adolescents.
