E. Practical Applications Allied Health Body surface area (BSA) is often used to calculate dosages of drugs for patients undergoing chemotherapy or those with severe burns. Body surface area can be estimated from the patient’s height and weight. BSA= weight in kg × height in cm 3600 The BSA will be in square meters. (a) Calculate the BSA for a man who weighs 95 kg and is 180 cm tall. (b) A chemotherapy drug is given at a dose of 20 mg/m 2 . Calculate the proper dosage for the man in part (a).
