Tracking height for growth is focused on patients in active physical development. Pediatric patients (children and adolescents) are in a phase of ongoing growth, so regular height measurements are critical to monitor normal development, identify growth disorders, or assess the effectiveness of treatments. The other groups listed have completed major growth or experience height changes unrelated to active growth (e.g., age-related height loss in older adults).
