Introduction

Weight Control APP computes the BMI of one person, shows the BMI value in the percentile chart and classifies the person by the weight.

To use the APP, you have to enter the required information: Height, Weight and Age (user should choose the age by sliding the slide, and enter the height and weight of the patient in the textboxes).

BMI Table

This is the dataset used for the representation of the chart and for future features of the system.

  • The dataset corresponds with the latest study from the "Faustino Orbegozo Fundation" in Spain.

  • In this version weonly compute for male and age between 2 and 18 (child and teenager).

BMI Percentile Chart

This is the chart that represents the BMI ppercentiles.

The APP will show the BMI of the person related to his age, so it's good to determine the incidence of the weight of the person: Obesity, Overweight, Normal or underweight

Coming soon

These are the new features for the coming version:

  • Include tables for male and female, babies (0-24 month), child and teenager and adult.
  • Include recomended diagnosis that will be calculated by the BMI percentile:
  1. Obesity. BMI > percentile 97
  2. Overweight. BMI beetween percentile 85 and 87
  3. Normal weight. BMI between percentile 3 and 85
  4. Under weight. BMI < percentile 3
