Abstract：
:Some individuals with functional limitations or in some clinical or field areas have troubles to get stature and body weight measurement done. It does exist the alternative of estimating these variables from measurements of body segments like knee height (KH) and mid arm circumference (MAC). Of a sample of 113 healthy Venezuelan children, both sexes, 9 to 14 years of age, equations suggested by Ross Laboratories for estimating stature and body weight were applied. It was concluded that the need for an adjustment was evident which done using multiple regression analysis. This allowed us to generate estimated stature an weight by KH and MAC tables, for Venezuelan children.
