I would like to know more about how BSA is used to calculate drug dosages. I can look that up though. 😂 Very informative. Loved this article. Thanks

You have a typo mistake in the BMI calculation article. You give a couple of examples of how to calculate the BMI and you display the BMI result in m2. This is wrong. The unit of measurement for BMI is kg/m2.

Hello.
In kenya we mostly don't use BSA for calculation of cytotoxic drugs we just use it to calculate fluid requirement in burns patients. This is a real eye opener though i dont think the doctors are going to be implementing it any time soon.
We use BMI to determine risk for lifestyle diseases and all others that you listed above. Thankyou this is important knowledge.
