Trial overview
Official title: A methodology study to evaluate a sitting knee measuring device in assessing growth in Indian children aged 6 to 12 years receiving nutritional supplement with or without micronutrient fortification
Trial description: This methodology study will evaluate the sensitivity in using sitting knee digital caliper to measure changes in sitting knee length from over a 12-week study period amidst children in the age of 6 to 12 years in a community-based study in children ages 6 to 12 years who are receiving nutritional supplementation with micronutrients or without micronutrients.
Primary purpose:

Primary outcomes:
Change from Baseline to Week 12 in bone growth, as measured by sitting knee length caliper.
Timeframe: Baseline to Week 12
Secondary outcomes:
Change from Baseline to Week 12 in Z-score based on the standing height
Timeframe: Baseline-Week 12
