What is Body Mass Index?

Close

Body Mass Index (BMI) is calculated using a child’s weight and height. It is used as a screening tool to show that your child is growing appropriately or to identify possible weight concerns for children. If a child’s body mass index is high or low, a health care provider will gather more information to determine if the child is overweight or underweight.

What is a Height-for-age Chart?	Close
The height-for-age chart compares your child’s height to the range of heights of children of the same age and sex. These ranges are based on measurements collected from across the United States.
