In health, checking the baby’s growth and development is one of the crucial things. Why is that? Babies, toddlers, or young children are a critical growth period. Thus, the child’s growth must be monitored as quickly as possible.
Moreover, the government campaign regarding stunting is why monitoring child development is increasingly essential to do. Every month, we can see children are required to see their growth and development through periodic checks at the Public Health Center.
There are three types of measurements performed:
- Measurement of Length or Height
- Body Weight Measurement
- Head Circumference Measurement
In this case, each measurement is carried out using a unique tool or instrument provided by the Puskesmas. However, it is not uncommon for the equipment to be inadequate or unable to measure maximum growth.
Solo Abadi is a production and provider of medical devices, trying to see this as our potential to create a useful measurement tool, especially the length of a child’s body. Also, we are quite concerned that the measuring instruments used by some companies are imported. For this reason, Solo Abadi strives to create a baby length measuring device that is easy to use, with an attractive design but at an affordable price.
For that, we introduced the Infant Ruler Length Measurement Tool.
Get to know the definition of an infant ruler length measurement tool.
Baby Length Measurement Tool is a measuring tool used to measure a child’s body from 0-2 years. Why is this tool only used for children aged up to 2 years? The reason is the development of children aged 0-2 years affects whether the child is stunting or not. Because stunting detection can only apply for children aged 0-2 years, children who are already stunted cannot be adequately treated again above that age.

- After that, bring the child’s feet together, then gently press the child’s knee until it is straight and well attached to the base. Press the soles of the child’s feet to form the elbows. Then, slide the bottom panel and place it right on the sole of the child’s foot, so that it touches the tip of the child’s foot.
