Hi...

I'm suggesting a new topic: Applications for MEDICAL calculus, like Body Surface Area, Creatinine Clearance, Blood Pressure Average for several measures.

The program calculates the approximate percent of alcohol concentration in the blood when the person's weight, amount of alcoholic beverage and time are known.
Human Post-trauma Epilepsy Seizure Prediction
The probability of epileptic seizures within a given time for a patient suffering head injury is calculated by this program.
Bedside Blood - gas Interpreter
18 Blood gas values are used to calculate alveolar - arterial oxygen difference, estimated venous admixture and acid-base values and corrections. Oxygen flow values for desired O2 concentrations are also calculated.
Body Density - fat and Lean Mass from Skinfolds
Body density, fat and lean body mass are calculated by use of skinfold thickness measurements.
Estimating Obesity - Body fat Surface Area &Total Body Water.
From body height and weight the program calculates whether or not the subject is obese. Body fat, body surface area and total body water can also be calculated.
Fluid & Electrolytes/Body Burn Area
This program calculates the percent area of skin affected by a burn from estimates of burned areas of various body parts.
Fluid & Electrolytes/Potassium Balance (Scribner)
The program relates serum potassium, pH and total body potassium reserves. It is particularly useful in correcting serum potassium in acid-base disorders.
Anesthesiologyparameters
Body surface area, estimated blood volume, acceptable blood loss, normal and surgical fluid requirements and deficits and other parameters may be calculated with this program.

Anesthesia Parameters I
Body surface area, estimated blood volume, acceptable blood loss, normal and surgical fluid requirements and deficits and other parameters may be calculated with this program.
Anesthesia Parameters II
This program calculates vapor pressures of volatile anestnetics using the Antoine equation. In addition, it calculates delivered concentration, and output and concentration of saturated vapor from the vaporizer.
Pulmonary Medicine: Respiratory set up and Deadspace Adj
Calculates initial tidal volume for a ventilator patient, using the Radford nomogram with corrections for patient's temperature, altitude, activity level, presence of tracheostomy and metabolic acidosis in anesthesia. Deadspace required to normalize PC02 for a patient with respiratory alkalosis is estimated.
Copper Kettle Anesthetic Regulation
This program uses anesthetic vapor pressure data to calculate flow settings for valves in the anesthesia machine and also calculates use rate of liquid anesthetic.
Anesthesia: Antoine Values from Experimental Data
Vapor pressure of anesthetics as a function of temperature may be calculated from the Antoine equation. This program uses multiple linear regression to obtain Antoine constants for the desired anesthetic from tables of vapor pressure versus temperature.
Vapor Pressure Program Comments
The following programs calculate vapor pressures, using the Antoine equation, for specific compounds of interest to anesthesiologists. In addition, estimates of atmospheric pressure and Gibbs - corrected vapor pressure are provided. Antoine constants are stored for use with the "Copper Kettle Anesthetic Regulation" program.
