September 30, 2016 : Thinking About the Allowable Blood Loss Theory
© 安岡喜晴 (JoyShine)
I started exploring an Allowable Blood Loss theory for the
Medical Calculator.
The idea is to take patient type, weight, initial HCT, and lowest allowable HCT to estimate blood volume and maximum allowable blood loss.
After thinking it through, I went for a jog, then enjoyed some time on the Internet, took a shower, and went to bed in the morning, it was Saturday!
static const CalcInput ABL_INPUTS[] = {
{ L"Patient type", INPUT_CHOICE, L"- Select -|Adult Man|Adult Woman|Infant|Premature Neonate|Full Term Neonate" },
{ L"Enter Weight", INPUT_NUMBER, NULL },
{ L"Weight unit", INPUT_CHOICE, L"- Select -|lbs|kg" },
{ L"Enter Patient's Initial HCT (%)", INPUT_NUMBER, NULL },
{ L"Enter Patient's Allowable Lowest HCT (%)", INPUT_NUMBER, NULL },
};
