Data and utilities for estimating pediatric blood pressure
percentiles by sex, age, and optionally height (stature) as described in
Martin et al. (2022) <doi:10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2022.36918>.
Blood pressure percentiles for children under one year of age come from Gemelli
et al. (1990) <doi:10.1007/BF02171556>. Estimates of blood pressure
percentiles for children at least one year of age are informed by
data from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
<doi:10.1542/peds.2009-2107C> or from Lo et al. (2013)
<doi:10.1542/peds.2012-1292>. The source-selection flowchart comes from Martin et al. (2022)
<doi:10.1542/hpeds.2021-005998>.
