Knowledge and skills about growth monitoring (GM) amongst Child Development Project Officers (CDPOs) were assessed by interview technique. Majority (94%) of subjects had correct knowledge that GM helps in early detection of growth retardation while about 83% felt that a flattened growth curve indicates no weight gain. The percentages of CDPOs who were able to interpret and read correctly about what ascending descending and flattened growth curves indicate were 83, 71 and 50% respectively. There is thus a need of in-service training of CDPOs in GM activities.
通过访谈技术对儿童发展项目官员（CDPOs）关于生长监测（GM）的知识和技能进行了评估。大多数（94%）受试者具备正确的知识，即生长监测有助于早期发现生长发育迟缓，而约83%的人认为生长曲线变平表明体重没有增加。能够正确解读上升、下降和平坦生长曲线所表示含义的CDPOs的比例分别为83%、71%和50%。因此，需要对CDPOs进行生长监测活动方面的在职培训。
