Sizing the patient up is the first thing you do and the easiest to do twice. Body mass index for the airway and aspiration picture, body surface area for the calculations that scale to it, body habitus to tie it together. Three numbers, three formulas, and all of it before the case has even started.
The body metrics calculator collapses that into one entry. Put in the patient a single time and it returns body mass index, body surface area, and a habitus classification together, with the obesity class called out so the implications are obvious at a glance.
Because the same patient profile feeds every other calculator in the app, the numbers you see here are the numbers your dosing weights, tidal volume, and fluid math are already using. Nothing to re-enter, nothing to reconcile.

- Body surface area by the Mosteller formula, no chart lookup
- A body habitus read that frames airway, positioning, and dosing
- One patient entry shared across every calculator in the app
- Adult and pediatric patients handled on the same screen
