INTERGROWTH-21st course on maternal, fetal and newborn growth monitoring

This three module course communicates the methodology of maternal, fetal and newborn growth monitoring and the application of the INTERGROWTH-21st international growth standards to make judgement about appropriateness of growth. In response to the need for guidance on the correct measurement technique for newborn head circumference and an international prescriptive standard for comparisons, with the ongoing ZIKA virus infection, the first module “Assessing newborn size by anthropometry” has been published earlier than the remaining two modules.

This course is available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
