- Measuring height and weight accurately is important when monitoring an infant or child's health. Height and weight measurements are used to calculate your body mass index, or BMI, a measure of healthy versus unhealthy weight. They are also important when tracking a child's growth.
2. vision screening
how often need
- Eye care professionals recommend that you have an eye exam every one to two years. This may vary depending on your age, risk factors and whether you wear eyeglasses or contacts.
importance
- Vision problems can be treated if they are detected early. Early signs of serious health problems can also be detected during your eye exam. These can include high blood pressure as well as the risk of stroke and diabetes.
3. hearing test
how often need
- The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association's (ASHA) guidelines state that healthy adults ages 18-40 years old, who are not experiencing any noticeable hearing loss, should have their hearing tested every three to five years.
importance
- It's important to identify hearing problems as early as possible because they can affect your child's speech and language development, social skills and education. Treatment is more effective if any problems are detected and managed accordingly early on.
4. dental health examination
how often need
- Regular Checkups Recommended Every Six Months.
In order to maintain optimal dental health, the American Dental Association (ADA) recommends dental visits and exams every six months. For most patients, two regular dental check-ups per year are enough.
importance
- Regular dental visits are important because they help to keep your teeth and gums healthy. During the dental check up, your dental professional will check your overall oral health for any trouble areas. During the cleaning, your dental professional will remove any plaque and tartar buildup and may polish your teeth.
5. scoliosis test
how often need
- If the doctor is worried that the curve may be increasing, he or she may wish to examine the child every four to six months throughout adolescence. In adults with scoliosis, X-rays are usually recommended once every five years, unless symptoms are getting progressively worse.
importance
- Since scoliosis is difficult to detect, it is important for children to get screened. Scoliosis can get worse if left untreated and may cause pain and complications in adults. Finding it at a young age allows any scoliosis curves to be corrected as a child continues to grow.
6. self-breast examination
how often need
- Try to get in the habit of doing a breast self-examination once a month to familiarize yourself with how your breasts normally look and feel. Examine yourself several days after your period ends, when your breasts are least likely to be swollen and tender.
importance
- A breast self-exam that you do for breast awareness helps you understand the normal look and feel of your breasts. If you notice a change in your breasts that seems abnormal or if you notice one breast is different when compared with the other, you can report it to your doctor.
hope it helps ;)
