Body surface area (BSA) approximation calculation according to DuBois and DuBois' formula. The formula expresses BSA in squared meters (m2) and uses a person's weight in kilograms (kg) and height in centimeters (cm), in accordance with: weight (kg)^0.425 × height (cm)^0.725 × 0.007184.
To approximate the BSA based on the DuBois and DuBois formula.
Use for calculating the BSA in m2 based on the DuBois and DuBois formula. The formula expresses BSA in squared meters (m2) and uses a person's weight in kilograms (kg) and height/length in centimeters (cm). The formula: weight (kg)^0.425 × height (cm)^0.725 × 0.007184
Do not use for calculating BSA based on other formulas.
