What this calculator checks

The tool estimates underweight, stunting, wasting, and SAM/MAM screening signals using local reference data inspired by WHO child growth standards.

  • Weight-for-age for underweight risk
  • Height-for-age for stunting risk
  • Weight-for-height for wasting risk
  • MUAC thresholds for SAM and MAM screening

How to use the result

Treat the output as a practical awareness prompt. A moderate or severe result should lead to re-measurement and a conversation with a trained health worker, not self-diagnosis.
