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

Determine TEVAR indication for Type B aortic dissection based on aortic diameter, malperfusion, pain persistence, and false lumen expansion

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Aortic diameter — The aortic diameter recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Malperfusion — The malperfusion recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Pain persistence — The pain persistence recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • False lumen expansion — The false lumen expansion recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the type b tevar result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the aortic diameter, malperfusion, pain persistence, false lumen expansion for the scenario you are assessing. Determine TEVAR indication for Type B aortic dissection based on aortic diameter, malperfusion, pain persistence, and false lumen expansion. Use the type b tevar result to inform your calculation.
