eGrowth Monitoring

eGrowth Monitoring makes tracking the growth of your child.

eGrowth monitoring is the regular measurement of the child height and weight in order to document growth. The measurements are then plotted on a growth chart (CDC or WHO) to assess if the growth is in within the normal range.

eGrowth monitoring plays an important role to assess the early development and growth of a child; because it can help in early detection of both growing to slow or to fast which may mean malnutrition. A study published in 2004 which conducted a survey of 200 countries, concluded that growth charts are used universally in paediatric care (1). WHO and CDC have advised egrowth monitoring to be an integral part of child health for a number of decades.

eGrowth monitoring album is a unique electronic record of the health and wellbeing of the child. The app has the ability to record the height and weight of four children in a family. Each child will have its detail, which could be entered on a regular basis. The data entered will be directly plotted onto CDC growth chart showing the nutritional status of the child.

The photo album will not only be a historical record of the child development but will be able to provide healthcare providers once the child has grown to have a look back into the history of the developmental features throughout from birth to adulthood.

This is a unique application for Grandparents and extended families to keep track of their grandchildren and whanau as well as reminding the parents to take the height and weight measurements at the proper time.

We encourage all parents and the extended family to use this app to keep records of their children’s height and weight on a regular basis.
