0123 stadiometer

Manufactured by Seca

The Seca 0123 stadiometer is a medical device used for measuring the height of patients or subjects. It consists of a vertical measuring rod with a movable headpiece that is used to determine the exact height measurement. The device is designed to provide accurate and reliable height measurements for clinical and medical applications.

Anthropometric Measurements for Pediatric Obesity

Height/weight measurements were collected from child participants by study observers on a single occasion. Given the relationship between eating habits and excessive adiposity, these measures were taken to better characterize the study group relative to current overweight/obesity prevalence. Weight was recorded in kilograms (kg) to the nearest single decimal, using the Seca 869 digital scale. Height was recorded in centimeters (cm) to the nearest single decimal using a Seca 0123 stadiometer. Height and weight measures were conducted with shoes, heavy outerwear and large hair accessories removed. Two height and two weight measures were taken for each child and averaged. BMI was calculated according to the formula kg/m2 based on the height and weight measurements, and were compared to Center for Disease Control (CDC) growth charts for children based on age and sex. Children were characterized by BMI into healthy, overweight and obese as per CDC guidelines. 30 (link)

At enrolment, we collected comprehensive sociodemographic and clinical data using standardised questionnaires and physical examination. Blood pressure was measured using the OMRON Bronze upper arm blood pressure monitor BP510 (OmronHealthcare). Height and weight were measured using the Seca 813 scale and Seca 0123 stadiometer, respectively. Hip and waist circumference were measured using a standard metric tape measure. Alcohol consumption was assessed using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-Concise (AUDIT-C) questionnaire.11 (link) We tested for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) using the Alere Determine HBsAg rapid test and for hepatitis C infection using the SD Bioline Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody rapid test. Serum samples were collected for alanine aminotransaminase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) measurements. Patients were required to return fasted (≥8 hours) for a second visit within 2 weeks of enrollment for glucose and lipid panels, as well as transient elastography. Blood tests were performed at the central laboratory using the COBAS Beckman Coulter chemistry analyzer and the Alere Afinion 2 analyser for lipid panels.

Comprehensive Cardiometabolic Assessment Protocol

Participants underwent a full clinical examination and comprehensive laboratory testing. Blood pressure was measured using an automated cuff (OMRON Bronze upper arm blood pressure monitor BP510 [Omron® Healthcare Inc]), and the average of three measurements was calculated from readings taken 5 minutes apart. Height was measured in centimetres (cm) using a SECA 0123 stadiometer and weight in kilograms (kg) using a SECA 813 digital scale. Hip and waist circumference were measured in cm using a standard metric tape measure. Socio‐demographic variables were collected by trained research staff administering standardized questionnaires. Lifestyle data included physical activity, measured using the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ), diet assessments were conducted using the validated WHO STEP Surveillance (STEPS) short questionnaire [13 ] and the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification test‐concise (AUDIT‐C) questionnaire to measure alcohol consumption [14 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
