Gomez Classification: Protein energy malnutrition (PEM)

Gomez classification one of the earliest systems for classifying protein‐energy malnutrition in children, based on percentage of expected weight for age.

 

Formula for weight for age (%):

 

                                                                    Weight of the child

           Weight for age (%) =     ________________________________

                                                  Weight of the normal child of same age

 

Sr.No.	Weight of age (%)	Malnutrition
1.	90-100%	Normal Nutritional status
2.	75-89%	Mild malnutrition (1st degree)
3.	60-74%	Moderate malnutrition (2nd degree)
4.	<60%	Severe malnutrition (3rd degree)
