About the MUAC Calculator

This Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) calculator supports healthcare providers in identifying malnutrition in patients with or at risk for tuberculosis (TB). MUAC is a simple and rapid anthropometric measure used to assess undernutrition, especially in children aged 6–59 months, but also in adolescents and adults.

By entering the patient's age, age unit, and MUAC measurement, this tool helps determine the severity of nutritional risk — supporting treatment decisions, nutritional support, and TB program prioritization.
