Description

Malnutrition is a leading cause of preventable deaths in infants and children. However, to benefit from treatment and prevention programmes, malnourished children must first be identified. The MAMI chart study developed and tested a novel, low-cost weight-for-age slide chart (the "MAMI" chart) and compared it against traditional growth charts and look-up tables. This collection contains questionnaires, quantitative data, and summary results associated with the cross-over diagnostic study.
