COVID vs GrowthPlot

The COVID-19 app provides information specific to midwifery practice and midwifery client care in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The app is intended for Ontario midwives' use as a guide and clinical tool. The information displayed is based on a review of existing research and clinical guidance on COVID-19 and is based on the best available evidence. Proper use of this tool requires awareness of your client's clinical circumstances, needs and values as well as familiarity with your local circumstances and standards of practice. Evidence on COVID-19 is developing rapidly. The content in the app will be continuously monitored and updated as new evidence continues to emerge.

The “GrowthPlot” app plots selected growth parameters (length/height, weight, body-mass index, weight-for-length and head circumference) for typically growing children (using either the “WHO Growth Charts for Canada, March 2014 revision” or the “2000 CDC Growth Charts” reference. You can also plot selected growth parameters (length/height, weight, weight-for-length/height, body-mass index and head circumference) for children with a number of syndromes (Turner, Down, Noonan, Prader–Willi, Russell–Silver and Klinefelter) using the QuickChart API, which results in a link which allows you to save or share the chart image. Citations are provided for each reference range used for these calculations.
