Abstract

In some cases, it is not possible to either experimentally determine I V i SB I d i sb /TBW or calculate it, so in this case population data ranges could be used to give the best estimation for I V i SB I d i sb /TBW for an individual. Using a previously collected data set of TBW measured using isotope dilution we have been able to calculate the I V i SB I d i sb of everyone in the study [[5]] by converting TBW to I V i SB I d i sb using Equation 2.
