Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Diagnose cardiac tamponade from echo findings: RA collapse, RV diastolic collapse, respiratory IVC variation, and Doppler respiratory variation >25%

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Echo findings: RA collapse — The echo findings: ra collapse recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • RV diastolic collapse — The rv diastolic collapse recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Respiratory IVC variation — The respiratory ivc variation recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Doppler respiratory variation >25% — The doppler respiratory variation >25% recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the tamponade echo result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the echo findings: RA collapse, RV diastolic collapse, respiratory IVC variation, Doppler respiratory variation >25% for the scenario you are assessing. Diagnose cardiac tamponade from echo findings: RA collapse, RV diastolic collapse, respiratory IVC variation, and Doppler respiratory variation >25%. Use the tamponade echo result to inform your calculation.
