Mid upper Arm Circumference for Detection of Severe Acute Malnutrition in Infants Aged Between One and Six Months.

Siddharth Chand1, Dheeraj Shah.   

Abstract

This study conducted among 302 infants aimed to determine the most suitable mid upper arm circumference cutoff to diagnose severe acute malnutrition (weight-for-length <-3 SD) in infants aged between 1 and 6 months. The cut off of 11.0 cm had the best performance (Youden index 0.63, sensitivity 82.5%, specificity 80.3%).
