S = Body surface

R. F. Jones, T Reynolds, Stress Tensor · 2007

CFD techniques are applied to a cylinder in cross flow and Computational AeroAcoustic (CAA) capabilities developed. Using Curle's method, radiated noise is calculated for solid cylinders and attenuation due to periodic holes is investigated. The numerical analysis exhibits a relationship between hole size and noise attenuation and shows that momentum addition to the wake destructively interferes with the sound sources. Nomenclature a ∞ = Free stream velocity δij = Surface area for element ij. dx = step in x direction F = Body forces f = Arbitrary function n = Normal vector to the surface of the region p = Pressure ρ = Density r = Distance to observer

Body Surface Area

National Cancer Institute · Definitions · 2020

A measure of the 2-dimensional extent of the body surface (i.e., the skin). Body surface area (BSA) can be calculated by mathematical formula or from a chart that relates height to weight. BSA is often an important factor in dosing.

Body Surface Mapping

Ian Menown · Critical Pathways in Cardiology A Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine · 2003

Recent advances in biomarkers have improved the evaluation of patients with acute chest pain, but current critical care pathways may still lead to important delays in early diagnosis and, hence, treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Electrocardiographic changes may occur within seconds of an ischemic insult, but the conventional 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) typically has only 50% to 60% sensitivity for diagnosis of AMI. Recording of multiple ECGs over a larger thoracic surface area, including the right ventricular, high left lateral, and posterior regions, by body surface mapping (BSM) has been made feasible in the setting of acute coronary syndromes by novel developments in electrode technology and simultaneous multichannel ECG data acquisition. Clinical studies of an Food and Drug Adminstration-approved BSM system (PRIME-ECG) have demonstrated improved early diagnosis of AMI in patients without 12-lead ST elevation and improved detection of right ventricular or posterior involvement in ST elevation MI. The improved diagnostic sensitivity compared with the conventional 12-lead ECG coupled with the potential reduction of delay to diagnosis compared with biomarkers suggest that BSM may have an important role as part of a chest pain critical care pathway for evaluation of patients with ischemic type chest pain.

Body Surface Area

Carlos Vaccaro, Hernán Vaccarezza, Gustavo Rossi et al. · Diseases of the Colon & Rectum · 2012

Body surface area is a predictor for conversion and longer laparoscopic operative time. It should be considered when informing patients, selecting cases in the early learning curve, and assessing standard of care.
