Assessing the optimal time interval between growth measurements using a combined data set of weights and heights from 5948 infants

Background Current guidance on the optimum interval between measurements in infancy is not evidence based. We used routine data to explore how measurement error and short-term variation ('noise') might affect interpretation of infant weight and length gain ('signal') over different time intervals. Method Using a database of weights and lengths from 5948 infants aged 0–12 months, all pairs of measurements per child 2, 4 and 8 weeks apart were extracted.
