世界衛生組織兒童生長髮育標準主要用於對兒童生長髮育情況的評價，根據評價結果可以早期篩查營養不良（低體重、生長髮育遲緩、消瘦）以及肥胖兒童，對其早期進行干預，降低營養不良．肥胖兒童的發生率，提高兒童的生存生活質量。

WHO最新兒童生長髮育標準世界衛生組織（WHO）公佈了最新的“國際兒童生長髮育指標標準”，以前制定的標準偏高，造成了很多“小胖墩”，那麼兒童是否也是以過去的標準為參考？家長又如何準確評估孩子的身高和體重？兒科研究所專家指出，生長髮育不合格的孩子呈明顯的兩極分化趨勢，家長透過畫生長曲線進行監測（範圍值以內正常）。體重推算公式：1-6個月寶寶體重(克)=出生體重+(月齡×600克)7-12個月寶寶體重(克)=出生體重+(月齡×500克)2-14歲體重(公斤)=(年齡×2)+8公斤身高推算公式：出生3個月寶寶增長3-3.5釐米/每月4-6個月增長2釐米/每月7-12個月增長1-1.5釐米/每月1週歲後身高=(年齡×5)+80釐米增長速度參考表：年齡//增長速度（單位：釐米/年）嬰幼兒期（3歲以下） >7釐米/每年兒童期（3-10歲） ＜4-5釐米/每年青春期（10-14歲） ＜5-6釐米/每年P15 表示第15個孩子的指標 （下限）P50 表示第50孩子的指標 （中位）P85 表示第85個的指標 （上限）身長/身高：（24個月寶寶以後站著量，之前躺著量）女孩 男孩月 P15 P50 P85 P15 P50 P850 47.2 49.1 51.1 47.9 49.9 51.81 51.7 53.7 55.7 52.7 54.7 56.72 55.0 57.1 59.2 56.4 58.4 60.53 57.6 59.8 62.0 59.3 61.4 63.54 59.8 62.1 64.3 61.7 63.9 66.05 61.7 64.0 66.3 63.7 65.9 68.16 63.4 65.7 68.1 65.4 67.6 69.87 64.9 67.3 69.7 66.9 69.2 71.48 66.3 68.7 71.2 68.3 70.6 72.99 67.6 70.1 72.6 69.6 72.0 74.310 68.9 71.5 74.0 70.9 73.3 75.611 70.2 72.8 75.4 72.1 74.5 77.012 71.3 74.0 76.7 73.3 75.7 78.213 72.5 75.2 77.9 74.4 76.9 79.414 73.6 76.4 79.2 75.5 78.0 80.615 74.7 77.5 80.3 76.5 79.1 81.816 75.7 78.6 81.5 77.5 80.2 82.917 76.7 79.7 82.6 78.5 81.2 84.018 77.7 80.7 83.7 79.5 82.3 85.119 78.7 81.7 84.8 80.4 83.2 86.120 79.6 82.7 85.8 81.3 84.2 87.121 80.5 83.7 86.8 82.2 85.1 88.122 81.4 84.6 87.8 83.0 86.0 89.123 82.2 85.5 88.8 83.8 86.9 90.024 83.1 86.4 89.8 84.6 87.8 91.024 82.4 85.7 89.1 83.9 87.1 90.325 83.2 86.6 90.0 84.7 88.0 91.226 84.0 87.4 90.9 85.5 88.8 92.127 84.8 88.3 91.8 86.3 89.6 93.028 85.5 89.1 92.7 87.0 90.4 93.829 86.3 89.9 93.5 87.7 91.2 94.730 87.0 90.7 94.3 88.4 91.9 95.531 87.7 91.4 95.2 89.1 92.7 96.232 88.4 92.2 95.9 89.7 93.4 97.033 89.1 92.9 96.7 90.4 94.1 97.834 89.8 93.6 97.5 91.0 94.8 98.535 90.5 94.4 98.3 91.6 95.4 99.236 91.1 95.1 99.0 92.2 96.1 99.937 91.7 95.7 99.7 92.8 96.7 100.638 92.4 96.4 100.5 93.4 97.4 101.339 93.0 97.1 101.2 94.0 98.0 102.040 93.6 97.7 101.9 94.6 98.6 102.741 94.2 98.4 102.6 95.2 99.2 103.342 94.8 99.0 103.3 95.7 99.9 104.043 95.4 99.7 103.9 96.3 100.4 104.644 96.0 100.3 104.6 96.8 101.0 105.245 96.6 100.9 105.3 97.4 101.6 105.846 97.2 101.5 105.9 97.9 102.2 106.547 97.7 102.1 106.6 98.5 102.8 107.148 98.3 102.7 107.2 99.0 103.3 107.749 98.8 103.3 107.8 99.5 103.9 108.350 99.4 103.9 108.4 100.0 104.4 108.951 99.9 104.5 109.1 100.5 105.0 109.552 100.4 105.0 109.7 101.1 105.6 110.153 101.0 105.6 110.3 101.6 106.1 110.754 101.5 106.2 110.9 102.1 106.7 111.255 102.0 106.7 111.5 102.6 107.2 111.856 102.5 107.3 112.1 103.1 107.8 112.457 103.0 107.8 112.6 103.6 108.3 113.058 103.5 108.4 113.2 104.1 108.9 113.659 104.0 108.9 113.8 104.7 109.4 114.260 104.5 109.4 114.4 105.2 110.0 114.8體重：（穿著內衣秤量）女孩 男孩月 P15 P50 P85 //P15 P50 P850 2.8 3.2 3.7 2.9 3.3 3.91 3.6 4.2 4.8 3.9 4.5 5.12 4.5 5.1 5.9 4.9 5.6 6.33 5.1 5.8 6.7 5.6 6.4 7.24 5.6 6.4 7.3 6.2 7.0 7.95 6.1 6.9 7.8 6.7 7.5 8.46 6.4 7.3 8.3 7.1 7.9 8.97 6.7 7.6 8.7 7.4 8.3 9.38 7.0 7.9 9.0 7.7 8.6 9.69 7.3 8.2 9.3 7.9 8.9 10.010 7.5 8.5 9.6 8.2 9.2 10.311 7.7 8.7 9.9 8.4 9.4 10.512 7.9 8.9 10.2 8.6 9.6 10.813 8.1 9.2 10.4 8.8 9.9 11.114 8.3 9.4 10.7 9.0 10.1 11.315 8.5 9.6 10.9 9.2 10.3 11.616 8.7 9.8 11.2 9.4 10.5 11.817 8.8 10.0 11.4 9.6 10.7 12.018 9.0 10.2 11.6 9.7 10.9 12.319 9.2 10.4 11.9 9.9 11.1 12.520 9.4 10.6 12.1 10.1 11.3 12.721 9.6 10.9 12.4 10.3 11.5 13.022 9.8 11.1 12.6 10.5 11.8 13.223 9.9 11.3 12.8 10.6 12.0 13.424 10.1 11.5 13.1 10.8 12.2 13.725 10.3 11.7 13.3 11.0 12.4 13.926 10.5 11.9 13.6 11.1 12.5 14.127 10.7 12.1 13.8 11.3 12.7 14.428 10.8 12.3 14.0 11.5 12.9 14.629 11.0 12.5 14.3 11.6 13.1 14.830 11.2 12.7 14.5 11.8 13.3 15.031 11.3 12.9 14.7 11.9 13.5 15.232 11.5 13.1 15.0 12.1 13.7 15.533 11.7 13.3 15.2 12.2 13.8 15.734 11.8 13.5 15.4 12.4 14.0 15.935 12.0 13.7 15.7 12.5 14.2 16.136 12.1 13.9 15.9 12.7 14.3 16.337 12.3 14.0 16.1 12.8 14.5 16.538 12.5 14.2 16.3 12.9 14.7 16.739 12.6 14.4 16.6 13.1 14.8 16.940 12.8 14.6 16.8 13.2 15.0 17.141 12.9 14.8 17.0 13.4 15.2 17.342 13.1 15.0 17.3 13.5 15.3 17.543 13.2 15.2 17.5 13.6 15.5 17.744 13.4 15.3 17.7 13.8 15.7 17.945 13.5 15.5 17.9 13.9 15.8 18.146 13.7 15.7 18.2 14.1 16.0 18.347 13.8 15.9 18.4 14.2 16.2 18.548 14.0 16.1 18.6 14.3 16.3 18.749 14.1 16.3 18.9 14.5 16.5 18.950 14.3 16.4 19.1 14.6 16.7 19.151 14.4 16.6 19.3 14.7 16.8 19.352 14.5 16.8 19.5 14.9 17.0 19.553 14.7 17.0 19.8 15.0 17.2 19.754 14.8 17.2 20.0 15.2 17.3 19.955 15.0 17.3 20.2 15.3 17.5 20.156 15.1 17.5 20.4 15.4 17.7 20.357 15.3 17.7 20.7 15.6 17.8 20.558 15.4 17.9 20.9 15.7 18.0 20.759 15.5 18.0 21.1 15.8 18.2 20.960 15.7 18.2 21.3 16.0 18.3 21.1
