Abstract
Inaccurate equipment, incorrect technique, and staff inexperience all contributed significantly to inaccuracy of linear measurement in a GYN practice. Correct equipment and staff education are needed. Accurate linear measurements must be obtained to allow for valid clinical decisions regarding the need for hormone replacement therapy based on loss of stature of menopausal women.
