Predictors of body surface area
Journal of Clinical Anesthesia, 1992To determine the accuracy of body surface area (BSA) calculations proposed in the literature and their applicability to patient populations such as neonates and parturients.Using 395 actual BSA measurements in the literature, 15 prediction formulas were assessed for accuracy using the root mean squared error (RMSE) method of prediction.

Body surface Laplacian ECG mapping
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 1992A new noninvasive approach has been developed to resolve spatially distributed cardiac electrical activity by measuring the surface Laplacian of the body surface potential. Computer simulations demonstrate the ability of the Laplacian map compared with the potential map to image spatially distributed dipole sources embedded in a semi-infinite volume ...

Corrected body surface potential mapping
Biomedizinische Technik/Biomedical Engineering, 2007In the method for body surface potential mapping described here, the influence of thorax shape on measured ECG values is corrected. The distances of the ECG electrodes from the electrical heart midpoint are determined using a special device for ECG recording. These distances are used to correct the ECG values as if they had been measured on the surface

Simulation Studies in Body Surface to Body Surface Channel Models
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014The study of the characteristics of WBAN channel model is crucial, due to the fact that it is an important step to design wireless body area network (WBAN). WBAN channel models are so different from the traditional mobile channel models and there are few publications on them.

Fusion of body surface potential and body surface Laplacian signals for electrocardiographic imaging
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2000Various approaches to the solution to the inverse problem of electrocardiography have been proposed over the years. Recently, the use of inverse algorithms using measured body surface Laplacians has been proposed, and in various studies this technique has been shown to outperform the traditional use of body surface potentials in certain model problems.

Lean body mass, body surface area and epirubicin kinetics
Anti-Cancer Drugs, 1994For a number of cytotoxics, a relationship between efficacy and plasma concentrations has recently been demonstrated. Lean body mass has been demonstrated to be a useful parameter for predicting drug clearance for a number of non-cytotoxic drugs. However, the role of lean body mass in predicting drug clearance for any cytotoxic drug has not been ...

Body-Surface-Potential-Mapping
Kardiologie up2date, 2014Persistent atrial fibrillation is a common heart rhythm disturbance and a leading cause of hospitalization and death. Current available therapy remains suboptimal. Catheter ablation of responsible cardiac tissue is more effective than medications, but a substantial proportion of patients require repeat procedures.

Body pressures and bed surfaces
Nursing Standard, 1991Specialised beds which are designed to prevent unacceptably high levels of pressure loads on skin surfaces are frequently used in the management of patients with, or at risk of developing, pressure sores. This study compares the intersurface pressure on 'at risk' body sites of six subjects on a new design of water bed with those obtained from resting ...
