The number of referrals under strict adherence to the Dutch consensus guidelines for short stature was estimated using longitudinal data from 970 children (0-10 years). Results showed that over 38% of all children would have to be referred one or more times. There is therefore a clear need to revise the current guidelines.
利用970名儿童（0至10岁）的纵向数据，估算了严格遵循荷兰矮小身材共识指南进行转诊的人数。结果显示，超过38%的儿童需要被转诊一次或多次。因此，显然有必要修订现行指南。
