Calculates predicted and upper limit maximum wall thickness (MWT) based on a patient's age, sex and BSA


Toggle between BSA or height and weight entry.

Height (cm):

Weight (kg):

{{bsa}} m2

Measured MWT (mm):

(optional)
Warning! Age should be between 18 and 80.
Warning! BSA should be between 1.2 and 3.5.

Predicted MWT:

{{predictedmwt()}} mm

{{predictedmwtGranular()}} mm (2sf)
