and adults.We determined body surface area (BSA) using mean heights and weights in order to calculate the appropriate quantities of medication to be prescribed.As a rough estimate, infants require one-fifth of adult doses, children two-fifths of adult doses, and adolescents two-thirds of adult...
Even though volumes determined by Simp- son's Rule are frequently used for ventricular function determination, they are not routinely used to calculate LV mass, probably due to limitations resulting from poor epi- cardial delimitation in some patients. Other geometrical models have been proposed in ...
is the most widely used to calculate left ventricular volumes and mass in noninvasive laboratories worldwide. The broad acceptance of M-mode derived estimation relies on the fact that it was the first method that was validated and also on its technical...
We hypothesize that the pediatric Z-scores currently used might overestimate the number of cases with AoD, especially in adolescents with a body surface area (BSA) similar to that of adults. Results obtained by using the Z-score and the new Q-score will be than compared and discussed....
This dataset could be further applied to calculate transportation network density. 4. Inspecting the Spatial Issues: Methodology 4.1. Preprocessing Before running different statistical models, a series of preprocessing steps had to be conducted to obtain those calculable variables, either dependent or ...
