A variety of formulae are provided for estimation of physiologic characteristics of infants, children, and adults. Calculations include: body surface area, ideal weight, airway dead-space, the alveolar gas equation, and GFR. Each formula is referenced to the original publication. Future functions will cover more material with a focus on anaesthesia, critical care and peri-operative medicine.
Functions are provided for estimation of a range of physiologic characteristics of infant, child and adult humans.
- Height, weight and fluid compartments.
- Henderson-Hasslebalch
- Alveolar gas equation
- Airway dead-space
Each formula is referenced to the original publication. Warnings can be given for estimation based on input data outside of normal ranges. Future functions will cover more material with a focus on anaesthesia, critical care and peri-operative medicine.
