BSA: SQUARE ROOT OF: (height in centimeters x weight in kilograms) DIVIDED BY: 3600 Calvert Formula: DOSE (mg) = AUC X [GFR + 25] . AUC: Area Under the Curve Ideal Body Weight: Male: 50 + (2.3 X height in inches over 5 feet) Female: 45.5 + (2.3 X height in inches over 5 feet) GFR(men)= (140-age)(IBW)/(72)(serum creat) GFR(women)= [(140-age)(IBW)/(72)(serum creat)](0.85) Weight system calculations: 2.2 lbs = 1.0 kg Height calculations: 1 inch = 2.54 cm Taxol Dose Calculations: Dose= AUC x (GFR+25) |
