Standard BMI formulas fail for individuals with limb loss. This tool uses clinical weight-adjustments to estimate the true Body Mass Index for patients with amputations.
For patients with limb loss, the body mass index is calculated using a theoretical total body weight. This estimate adds back the percentage of weight lost from the missing limb (e.g., 0% for this selection) to ensure accurate nutritional and health screenings.
