How can I accurately measure the height of a person standing?

Height-measuring instruments from seca make measuring easy, fast and precise.

1. The patient stands barefoot (if possible) with his/her back to the wall.
2. With feet together, ensure the heels are touching the wall.
3. The body is erect and centered on the measuring rod.
4. Confirm the corner of the eyes and the top of the ears are level (Frankfurt Line).
5. To measure, the user places the headpiece against the scalp and locks it.
