DOI: 10.1038/pr.2017.222

Abstract: BackgroundThe Broselow tape (BT) has been shown to estimate weight poorly primarily because of variations in body habitus. The manufacturers have suggested that a visual assessment of habitus may be used to increase its performance.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1115/1.4055513

Abstract: The effect of body habitus on auscultation of heart murmurs is investigated via computational hemoacoustic modeling. The source of the heart murmur is first obtained from a hemodynamic simulation of blood flow through a stenosed… read more here.
