MUAC Tapes

MUAC (Mid-Upper Arm Circumference) tape is a simple, cost-effective, and non-invasive tool that measures the circumference of the mid-upper arm. This measurement serves as an indirect indicator of muscle and fat tissue mass, providing insights into an individual's nutritional status. It is widely accepted and recommended by global health organizations for its effectiveness in identifying and monitoring malnutrition, especially in resource-limited settings where other assessment methods may be impractical.
