Body Surface Area (BSA) is the measured or calculated surface area of a human body. It is used in clinical medicine to calculate drug doses (particularly chemotherapy), burn area assessment, and metabolic rate estimation. BSA is considered more accurate than body weight alone for drug dosing.

ステップバイステップガイド

  1. 1Mosteller formula: BSA = √(H × W / 3600) — simple and widely used
  2. 2DuBois formula: BSA = 0.007184 × H^0.725 × W^0.425 — original 1916 formula
  3. 3Haycock formula: BSA = 0.024265 × H^0.3964 × W^0.5378 — most accurate for children
  4. 4H = height in cm, W = weight in kg, result in m²

解いた例

入力
Adult male: 80 kg, 180 cm
結果
BSA ≈ 2.0 m²
Average adult male BSA is 1.9 m²
入力
Child: 20 kg, 110 cm
結果
BSA ≈ 0.76 m²
BSA scales non-linearly with size
