⚠️There's a newer version (0.9.11) of this package.Take me there.

childsds (version 0.6)

Data and Methods Around Reference Values in Pediatrics

Description

Calculation of standard deviation scores adduced from different growth standards (WHO, UK, German). Therefore, the calculation for SDS-values for different measures like BMI, weight, height, head circumference, different ratios, etc. are easy to carry out. Also, references for laboratory values in children are available: serum lipids, iron-related blood parameters. In the new version, there are also functions combining the gamlss lms() function with resampling methods for using with repeated measurements and family dependencies.
