This book was compiled to assist care providers in obtaining and documenting<br />
accurate physical measurements for pediatric patients, both as an<br />
aid to diagnosis and for clinical management.We have chosen to include<br />
detailed information for dysmorphologists and clinical geneticists, but<br />
the book can also be used by primary care providers or any of the other<br />
professionals involved in pediatric care. In this second edition, our main<br />
changes have been to update the currently available growth curves for the<br />
height, weight, and head circumference of North American and North<br />
European infants and children.We have also added a substantial number<br />
of growth curves for individuals with known diagnoses that we hope will<br />
prove useful for those involved in the care of these children.<br />
