Physical Measure Form

1. Anthropometric Data

[INTERVIEWER INSTRUCTIONS: Ask the participant to remove their shoes and heavy clothing (if applicable). Ask the participant to stand straight with their back against the wall, head forward, shoulders relaxed. Using a ruler or other straight measurement tool, align the participant’s nose in an imaginary straight line with the tragion or pinna of their ear (see image below for reference). Lower the base of the height meter to the head. If there is a lot of hair, a little pressure should be applied so the height meter touches the head. Mark down the first height measurement below. Ask the participant to step off the stadiometer, then step back on and repeat the alignment process to take the second measurement. If the first and second measurement agree within 0.2 cm, do not take a third measurement. If the first and second measurement do not agree within 0.2 cm, repeat these steps and record a third measurement. Average the measurement and mark on the tablet.]

Image description: Text at the top of the image reads "Frankfort Plane". Image displays a diagram of a person's head turned so that the right profile is visible. Text describes parts of head including Tragion, orbit of eye, and Tragus and associated lines point to these parts' location on the head. Text reading "Frankfort horizontal plane" is placed at the end of a horizontal line which divides the head in half. Citation reads Lee DR, Nieman CD, Nutritional Assessment, 2007:170 – 221.

1. Height

1. First height measurement: __ __ __.__ cm

2. Second height measurement: __ __ __.__ cm

3. (If needed) Third height measurement: __ __ __.__ cm
   
   
   

**Repeat test a third time if the two values are not within 0.2cm of each other**

[INTERVIEWER INSTRUCTIONS: Ask the participant to remove their shoes and heavy clothing (if applicable). Ask the participant to step on the digital scale and be as still as possible. Once the measurement is presented on the screen, record the number in the first weight measurement below. Ask the participant to step off the scale. Recalibrate the scale to 0.0, then ask the participant to step on the scale again. If the first and second measurements agree within 0.1 kg, do not take a third measurement. If the first and second measurements do not agree within 0.1 kg, repeat these steps and record a third measurement. Average the measurements and mark on the tablet.

2. Weight

1. First weight measurement: __ __ __._kg.

2. Second weight measurement: __ __ __.__kg.

3. (If needed) Third weight measurement: __ __ __.__kg.
   
   
   

**Repeat test a third time if the two values are not within 0.1kg of each**

[INTERVIEWER INSTRUCTIONS: Using a non-elastic tape measure, you will measure the participant’s waist circumference. To do this, ask the participant to remove any heavy clothing (if applicable) and breathe normally. Ask the participant if they are comfortable slightly adjusting their clothing so that you can see their umbilicus (ensure that the caregiver is comfortable with this as well). This might require them to lift their shirt up or scoot their pants down. Ask the participant to wrap the tape around their body and hand it to you. If the participant is not comfortable showing their umbilicus, the measurement may be taken over their shirt. Keep the tape measure snug around the waist, but do not compress the body (i.e., do not squeeze the tape measure around the participant’s body). Record the measurement in centimeters where the tape measure crosses at the bellybutton. Remove the tape measure from the participant’s body and repeat these steps for a second measurement. If the first and second measurement agree within 0.5 cm, do not take a third measurement. If the first and second measurement do not agree within 0.5 cm, repeat these steps and record a third measurement. Average the measurements and mark on the tablet.

3. Waist circumference

   1. First waist measurement: __ __ __.__ cm

   2. Second waist measurement: __ __ __.__ cm

   3. (If needed) Third waist measurement: __ __ __.__ cm
      
      
      

**Repeat test a third time if the two values are not within 0.5cm of each other**
