Patient height must be at least 60 inches (5 feet) or 152.4 cm for these Ideal Body Weight calculations

Ideal Weight (Devine, 1974), Predicted Body Weight (PBW) used in ARDS-NET Tidal Volume calculation
1. Weight (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * (htIn - 60)
2. Weight (kg) = 50 + 0.91 * (htCm - 152.4)
Ideal Weight (Robinson, 1983)
1. Weight (kg) = 52 + 1.9 * (htIn - 60)
Ideal Weight (Miller, 1983)
1. Weight (kg) = 56.2 + 1.41 * (htIn - 60)
Ideal Weight (Hamwi, (1964)
1. Weight (kg) = 48.0 + 2.7 * (htIn - 60)
Ideal Weight (Approximate quick calculation, modified from Broca's Index, 1871)
1. Weight (lb) = 106 + 6 * (htIn - 60)
