Achondroplasia Height Prediction and Vosoritide Response

Predicts adult height in achondroplasia using achondroplasia-specific growth charts, annual height velocity on vosoritide therapy, and foramen magnum stenosis risk scoring.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Predicts adult height in achondroplasia using achondroplasia-specific growth charts, annual height velocity on vosoritide therapy, and foramen magnum stenosis risk scoring

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Achondroplasia-specific growth charts — The achondroplasia-specific growth charts recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Annual height velocity on vosoritide therapy — The annual height velocity on vosoritide therapy recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Foramen magnum stenosis risk scoring — The foramen magnum stenosis risk scoring recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the achondroplasia height result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the achondroplasia-specific growth charts, annual height velocity on vosoritide therapy, foramen magnum stenosis risk scoring for the scenario you are assessing. Predicts adult height in achondroplasia using achondroplasia-specific growth charts, annual height velocity on vosoritide therapy, and foramen magnum stenosis risk scoring. Use the achondroplasia height result to inform your calculation.
