Centile Calculator

This software calculates customised birthweight (per)centiles using the principles of the Gestation Related Optimal Weight (GROW) program.

The latest versions give the option of customisation based on datasets from UK (N=40,000), Sweden (N=400,000) New Zealand (N=5,000) and Australia (N=12,500).

For each of the three datasets, coefficients affecting birthweight were obtained using a backwards conditional multiple regression technique.

There are TWO forms of the calculator.

Form 1 (individual)
This is used to calculate a single birthweight centile at a time (currently v5.12.1 dated March 2007)

Form 2 (bulk)
This is used to calculate a dataset of centiles in a spreadsheet (currently v6.2.2 dated March 2007)
