Information

Estimate the predicted heart weight with reference intervals using age, sex, body length and weight in persons 18 years of age and above.

The calculations are based on linear regression models using three different equations, derived from almost 28000 medicolegal autopy cases with non-natural causes of death, i.e. not due directly to disease. The heart weight calculator is valid for cases having a body weight > 20 kg and < 250 kg, a body height > 120 cm and < 250 cm and in which the duration between time of death and autopsy did not exceed 10 days.
