Height & Weight Temperature
Common B.S.A. formulas:
| The Mosteller formula | BSA (m²) = ( [Ht (cm) · Wt (kg) ]/ 3600 )½ |
| The DuBois formula | BSA (m²) = 0.20247 x Height(m)^0.725 x Weight(kg)^0.425 |
| The Haycock³formula | BSA (m²) = 0.024265 x Height(cm)0.3964 x Weight(kg)0.5378 |
| The Gehan and George formula | BSA (m²) = 0.0235 x Height(cm)0.42246 x Weight(kg)0.51456 |
| The Boyd formula | BSA (m2) = 0.0003207 x Height(cm)^0.3 x Weight(grams)^(0.7285 - ( 0.0188 x LOG10(grams) ) |
