  • Title: Many referrals under Dutch short stature guidelines.
    Author: van Buuren S, Bonnemaijer-Kerckhoffs DJ, Grote FK, Wit JM, Verkerk PH.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 2004 Apr; 89(4):351-2. PubMed ID: 15033845.
    Abstract:
    The number of referrals under strict adherence to the Dutch consensus guidelines for short stature was estimated using longitudinal data from 970 children (0-10 years). Results showed that over 38% of all children would have to be referred one or more times. There is therefore a clear need to revise the current guidelines.
