WHO Child Growth Standards - HealthWatch Pro 3.0 allows to use both CDC standards and WHO (World Health Organization) to calculate child growth percentiles. In addition to calculate weight, height, and Head circumference percentiles, HealthWatch Pro 3.0 can also calculate percentiles for Arm circumference, Subscapular skinfold, Triceps skinfold, and six gross motor milestones using WHO standards.

Using intervals interpolation to calculate percentiles - We are using the LMS approach with LMS parameters provided by CDC or WHO. In the data set
of LMS parameters, age is listed at the half month point for the entire month; for example, 1.5 months represents 1.0-1.99 months or 1.0 month up to but not including 2.0 months of age. The only exception is birth, which represents the point at birth.
In previous version, the age is rounded to the nearest month to find LMS parameters. This causes there is discrepancy between calculated value and value from Growth Chart, especially when the age is small (like 1 week). In version 3.0, instead of rounding the age to the nearest month, intervals interpolation are used to find LMS parameters at a specific age. By this way, the calculated value is very close to that from Growth Chart.
