Assessing Growth of Infants and Toddlers
How to use an Infantometer
Accurate Length Measuring – Infants
Monitor Growth
Infantometers are commonly used in pediatric clinics, hospitals, and during routine check-ups to monitor growth and development. Their design ensures that the baby remains safely in place during measurement, reducing movement that could lead to inaccurate readings. Accurate length measurements are crucial for tracking an infant’s growth patterns and ensuring they are developing healthily.
Recumbent Length
Infantometers or Measure Mats are Pediatric Height Scales. These devices are used to measure the length of new-born and infants to assess growth and development. These may be used to measure toddlers up to 2 years old.
Easy to Use
Infantometers make it quick and easy to measure babies and toddlers up to two years old. Position the infants head at one part of the infantometer and slide the foot piece in place at the other side.
