bit of a strech, but after an hour of fruitless googleing, I wonder if anyone has any experience, or better luck with google / pubmed than me in finidng some inforamtion on this!
A friend of mine has too calculate BMI's in a healthcare enviroment, and her senior insists on getting BMI readings for all clients. While the calculation would provide a frame of refference, it got me to thinking is there any standard way of adjusting these. Im not a profeesional in this field, and I assume not all amputations are the same (this case is a double leg bilateral amputee)
anyway, just throwing this out here too see if anyone else can make any suggestions or find any papers that may help my friend!
thanks in advance, sorry for the slightly out of topic question, but may interest some of ya!
