The utility of pediatric age‐based weight estimation formulas for emergency drug dose calculations in obese children
OBJECTIVES: In obese children, when drug therapy is required during emergency care, an estimation of ideal body weight is required for certain drug dose calculations. Some experts have previously speculated that age‐based weight estimation formulas could be used to predict ideal body weight. The obj...
