The term '''body weight''' is used colloquially and in the biological and medical sciences to refer to a person's [[Mass_versus_weight|mass or weight]]. Body weight is measured in [[kilogram]]s, a measure of mass, throughout the world, although in some countries such as the United States it is measured in [[pound (mass)|pounds]], or as in the United Kingdom, [[stone (imperial mass)|stones]] and pounds. Most hospitals, even in the United States, now use kilograms for calculations, but use kilograms and pounds together for other purposes. Strictly speaking, the body weight is the weight of the person without any items on, but practically body weight is taken with clothes on but often without the shoes and heavy accessories like mobile phones and wallets. Body weight is one way of determining a person's health. | |||
==Ideal body weight== | |||
Ideal body weight (IBW) was initially introduced by Devine in 1974 to allow estimation of drug clearances in obese patients; researchers have since shown that the metabolism of certain drugs relate more to IBW than total body weight.<ref name="IBW">{{cite journal|last=Pai|first=Manjunath P|coauthors=Paloucek, Frank P|title=The Origin of the "Ideal" Body Weight Equations|journal=The Annals of Pharmacotherapy|date=31 August 2000|month=September|volume=34|pages=1066–1069|doi=10.1345/aph.19381|pmid=10981254|issue=9}}</ref> The term was based on the use of insurance data that demonstrated the relative mortality for males and females according to different height–weight combinations. The most common estimation of IBW is by the Devine formula; other models exist and have been noted to give similar results.<ref name=IBW /> Other methods used in estimating the ideal body weight are [[body mass index]] and the [[Hamwi method]] . | |||

The stability of body weight depends on the energy intake and expenditure. When energy intake exceeds output, the excess energy is stored in the body as carbohydrates, proteins or fats and this causes a gain in body weight. The converse is also true. When energy expenditure exceeds energy intake, body weight decreases. | |||

[[File:Broselowtape.JPG|thumb| An example of a half unfolded Broselow tape.]] | |||
A number of ways to estimate weight in children have been developed for circumstances (such as emergencies) when actual weight cannot be measured. The most commonly used methods include guesses of the child's weight by parents or healthcare providers, weight-estimation formulas based on the child's age and tape-based systems of weight estimation. Some of the many formulas that have been used include the [[APLS]] formula, the Leffler formula, and Theron formula.<ref name=Ped09/> There are several tape-based systems for estimating children's weight, the most well-known of which is the [[Broselow Pediatric Emergency Tape|Broselow tape]].<ref>{{cite journal|last=Lubitz|first=Deborah|journal=Ann Emerg Med|year=1988|volume=17|issue=6|pmid=3377285|doi=10.1016/S0196-0644(88)80396-2|last2=Seidel|first2=JS|last3=Chameides|first3=L|last4=Luten|first4=RC|last5=Zaritsky|first5=AL|last6=Campbell|first6=FW|title=A rapid method for estimating weight and resuscitation drug dosages from length in the pediatric age group|pages=576–81}}</ref> The Broselow tape is based on length with weight read from the appropriate color area.

Revision as of 11:35, 20 December 2013
The term body weight is used colloquially and in the biological and medical sciences to refer to a person's mass or weight. Body weight is measured in kilograms, a measure of mass, throughout the world, although in some countries such as the United States it is measured in pounds, or as in the United Kingdom, stones and pounds. Most hospitals, even in the United States, now use kilograms for calculations, but use kilograms and pounds together for other purposes. Strictly speaking, the body weight is the weight of the person without any items on, but practically body weight is taken with clothes on but often without the shoes and heavy accessories like mobile phones and wallets. Body weight is one way of determining a person's health.
Ideal body weight
Ideal body weight (IBW) was initially introduced by Devine in 1974 to allow estimation of drug clearances in obese patients; researchers have since shown that the metabolism of certain drugs relate more to IBW than total body weight.[1] The term was based on the use of insurance data that demonstrated the relative mortality for males and females according to different height–weight combinations. The most common estimation of IBW is by the Devine formula; other models exist and have been noted to give similar results.[1] Other methods used in estimating the ideal body weight are body mass index and the Hamwi method .

Stability
Before you choose any particular company it is vital to understand in full how the different plans can vary. There is no other better method than to create a message board so that people can relax and "chill" on your website and check out your articles more. You should read the HostGator review, even before registering with a web hosting company. but Hostgator in addition considers the surroundings. You can even use a Hostgator reseller coupon for unlimited web hosting at HostGator! Most of individuals by no means go for yearly subscription and choose month to month subscription. Several users commented that this was the deciding factor in picking HostGator but in any case there is a 45 day Money Back Guarantee and there is no contract so you can cancel at any time. GatorBill is able to send you an email notice about the new invoice. In certain cases a dedicated server can offer less overhead and a bigger revenue in investments. With the plan come a Free Billing Executive, Free sellers account and Free Hosting Templates.

Estimation in children
A number of ways to estimate weight in children have been developed for circumstances (such as emergencies) when actual weight cannot be measured. The most commonly used methods include guesses of the child's weight by parents or healthcare providers, weight-estimation formulas based on the child's age and tape-based systems of weight estimation. Some of the many formulas that have been used include the APLS formula, the Leffler formula, and Theron formula.[12] There are several tape-based systems for estimating children's weight, the most well-known of which is the Broselow tape.[13] The Broselow tape is based on length with weight read from the appropriate color area. Newer systems, such as the PAWPER tape, make use of a simple two-step process to estimate weight: the length-based weight estimation is modified according to the child's body habitus to increase the accuracy of the final weight prediction.[14]
The Leffler formula is used for children 0–10 years of age.[12] In those less than a year old it is
and for those 1–10 years old it is
where m is the number of kilograms the child weighs and am and ay respectively are the number of months or years old the child is.[12]
The Theron formula is
where m and ay are as above.[12]
