Predictors of body surface area

Journal of Clinical Anesthesia, 1992
To 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 Area in Human Beings

Nature, 1964
Halliday and Hugo1 reported on a new method for the determination of the radiation surface area of the human body. They concluded that “measurements on a conventionalized model of a human being have shown that a human subject in the spread-eagle position presents the largest radiation area that can be presented, and that this area is approximately 95 ...

Lean body mass, body surface area and epirubicin kinetics

Anti-Cancer Drugs, 1994
For 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 ...

A revision of body surface area estimations

European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1985
The results from the present study indicate that the equation of Dubois and Dubois (1916), now in common use for estimating body surface area, is not the most accurate of those available. Our new equation is based on the measurement of body weight and upper calf circumference only.

Quick Method for Estimating Body Surface Area

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1966
Body surface area is increasingly used as a dosage criterion, not only for administration of water and electrolytes, 1,2 but also for drug therapy. 3 Its chief merit is that requirements for water and electrolytes, as well as therapeutic doses of many pharmaceutical agents, are roughly proportional to body surface area, except for neonates and ...

Human body surface area: a theoretical approach

European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2004
Knowledge of the human body surface area has important applications in medical practice, garment design, and other engineering sizing. Therefore, it is not surprising that several expressions correlating body surface area with direct measurements of body mass and length have been reported in the literature. In the present study, based on the assumption
