Community monitoring of the nutritional status of children has hitherto involved field surveys and lengthy computer analysis. These procedures are complex and cannot always be carried out on a routine basis. In addition, they do not provide immediate feedback or longitudinal information on the population under surveillance. This study describes a simple, universally applicable community survey system for monitoring the growth of infants and children that affords both cross-sectional and longitudinal data.
迄今为止,社区对儿童营养状况的监测涉及实地调查和冗长的计算机分析。这些程序很复杂,无法总是定期进行。此外,它们无法提供关于受监测人群的即时反馈或纵向信息。本研究描述了一种简单、普遍适用的社区调查系统,用于监测婴幼儿的生长情况,该系统可提供横断面数据和纵向数据。
