Development of heart and respiratory rate percentile curves for hospitalized children.
OBJECTIVE To develop and validate heart and respiratory rate percentile curves for hospitalized children and compare their vital sign distributions to textbook reference ranges and pediatric early warning score (EWS) parameters. METHODS For this cross-sectional study, we used 6 months of nurse-documented heart and respiratory rates from the electronic records of 14,014 children on general med...
متن کاملHeart Rate and Blood Pressure Centile Curves and Distributions by Age of Hospitalized Critically Ill Children
Heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) form the basis for monitoring the physiological state of patients. Although norms have been published for healthy and hospitalized children, little is known about their distributions in critically ill children. The objective of this study was to report the distributions of these basic physiological variables in hospitalized critically ill children. Contin...
متن کاملPercentile Curves for Anthropometric Measures for Canadian Children and Youth
Body mass index (BMI) is commonly used to assess a child's weight status but it does not provide information about the distribution of body fat. Since the disease risks associated with obesity are related to the amount and distribution of body fat, measures that assess visceral or subcutaneous fat, such as waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), or skinfolds thickness may be mor...
متن کاملPercentile curves for skinfold thickness for Canadian children and youth
Background. Skinfold thickness (SFT) measurements are a reliable and feasible method for assessing body fat in children but their use and interpretation is hindered by the scarcity of reference values in representative populations of children. The objective of the present study was to develop age- and sex-specific percentile curves for five SFT measures (biceps, triceps, subscapular, suprailiac...
متن کاملBody fat percentile curves for U.S. children and adolescents.
BACKGROUND To date, several studies have been published outlining reference percentiles for BMI in children and adolescents. In contrast, there are limited reference data on percent body fat (%BF) in U.S. youth. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to derive smoothed percentile curves for %BF in a nationally representative sample of U.S. children and adolescents. METHODS Percent fat was de...
