HW70 Ht/A- stunting
HW72 wt/ht- wasting
HW71 wt/A- underweight
we know that ''A child is considered short for its age or stunted if its height-for-age Z-score is below minus two standard deviation (SD) from the median of the reference population''.

here in DHS if we code HW70 < -200 ; does it indicate stunted children ???
