Survival From Ninety-Five Percent Total Body Surface Area Burn: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
Burns can be devastating and result in unwanted consequences with prolonged length of hospital stay. The mortality rate increases as the total body surface area increases, so proper management of patients with extensive degrees of burns is crucial for their survival.

Body surface area and body weight predict total liver volume in Western adults [PDF]
Computed tomography (CT) is used increasingly to measure liver volume in patients undergoing evaluation for transplantation or resection. This study is designed to determine a formula predicting total liver volume (TLV) based on body surface area (BSA) or body weight in Western adults.

Creating an educational module to improve the calculation of total body surface area burned
Initial management of burn patients involves the calculation of total body surface area burned and subsequent fluid management; a series of events which when performed incorrectly leads to complications for the patients. Proper education of graduate level health care practitioner students through an educational module is a solution to the ...
