Short stature is defined as a height less than those in the second percentile for age and sex on the appropriate growth chart. Abnormalities of growth may be detected earlier by assessing growth velocity. Specialists refer to an absolute height for which the z score is <−2 SDs for age, or a linear growth velocity with a z score <−1 SDs for age.
