| Main Objective: To establish an optimal monitoring regimen for IGF-I in NutropinAq treated children, using a newly developed capillary blood spot IGF-I measurements technology.;Secondary Objective: 1.To assess under clinical practice conditions, the biological variability of IGF-I (if any) in children treated with NutropinAq (physiological intra-individual variations, timing, dose of NutropinAq) and in different diseases conditions 2. Assuming a significant biological variability is observed, to identify parameters contributing to or related to this variability 3. To further validate the filter paper versus serum method IGF-I assay in the study setting 4. To assess auxological parameters during treatment with NutropinAq 5. To assess the acceptability of the NutropinAq Pen ;Primary end point(s): The number of capillary blood spot IGF-I measurements and the optimal timing of samples to assess the IGF-I status of NutropinAq treated patients | — |
