Abstract
Blood volume was studied in 160 infants and children aged from one hour to 14 years. From these data linear and logarithmic regression equations relating blood volume to weight, height and surface area were calculated. Equations utilizing combined height and logarithmic weight values were found to be the most accurate for predicting blood volume. Therefore, nomograms were constructed for reading blood volume directly from height and weight.This publication has 32 references indexed in Scilit:
