Clinical reference
Pediatric target height (mid-parental) is a growth tool commonly applied in Endocrinology / Pediatrics. Expected adult stature from father and mother height and child sex—same clinical role as Ped(z) target height (mph). Standard midpoint (boys +13 cm / girls −13 cm vs mean parental height) with an approximate ±8.5 cm corridor; Ped(z) adds Hermanussen auxology and country-specific references for tighter intervals. Use the interactive calculator for inputs, limitations, and primary references.
Not a substitute for clinical judgment. Verify critical values with primary literature, local protocols, and specialist input when appropriate.
