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

Scores CHARGE syndrome diagnosis using Blake criteria (major: coloboma, CHD, choanal atresia, growth retardation, GU anomalies, ear anomalies; minor: TE fistula, lip/palate, SCSC, distinctive face) for CHD7 testing guidance

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Blake criteria (major: coloboma — The blake criteria (major: coloboma recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • CHD — The chd recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Choanal atresia — The choanal atresia recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Growth retardation — The growth retardation recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • GU anomalies — The gu anomalies recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Ear anomalies; minor: TE fistula — The ear anomalies; minor: te fistula recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the charge criteria result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the Blake criteria (major: coloboma, CHD, choanal atresia, growth retardation, GU anomalies, ear anomalies; minor: TE fistula for the scenario you are assessing. Scores CHARGE syndrome diagnosis using Blake criteria (major: coloboma, CHD, choanal atresia, growth retardation, GU anomalies, ear anomalies; minor: TE fistula, lip/palate, SCSC, distinctive face) for CHD7 testing guidance. Use the charge criteria result to inform your calculation.
