The total body surface area, or BSA, of a human is difficult to calculate. There are various models that estimate BSA based on a person's weight and height. One simpler model is where w= weight in kg and h = Round your answer to the nearest cm. h = Number a. Using this model, estimate the height of a person who weighs 73 kg and whose BSA is 1.8. cm height in cm. BSA = Round your answer to the nearest kg. w Number kg wh 3600 b. Using this model, estimate the weight of a person who is 167 cm tall and whose BSA is 2.1.
