Development Monitoring
Systematic monitoring of the child's physical and developmental progress, from birth to adolescence.

Proper monitoring of development is a key element of pediatric care and contributes significantly to the prevention and early identification of potential health problems. At the pediatric clinic of Eleni G. Tsoni in Igoumenitsa, the developmental course of each child is assessed consistently and in accordance with modern scientific standards.

At each scheduled visit, the height, weight, head circumference (where required), as well as the child's overall physical development are recorded and assessed. The measurements are compared with internationally accepted growth curves, in order to establish that the development is normal and age-appropriate.

Particular emphasis is also placed on monitoring psychomotor development, assessing the child's progress at each stage of his or her life. Early identification of potential deviations allows for immediate treatment and, when necessary, collaboration with other medical specialties for the best possible support for the child.

At the same time, parents receive personalized advice on nutrition, sleep, physical activity and daily habits that contribute to proper development and maintaining good health.

With responsibility and continuous monitoring, our goal is for every child to grow up healthy, receiving the care and guidance they need at every stage of their development.
