Allen's Formulas
blood volume for men, in liters =
= (0.417 * ((height in meters)^3)) + (0.0450 * (weight in kg)) - 0.030
blood volume for women, in liters =
= (0.414 * ((height in meters)^3)) + (0.0328 * (weight in kg)) - 0.030
Nadler's modifications of Allen's Formulas
blood volume for men, in liters =
= (0.3669 * ((height in meters)^3)) + (0.03219 * (weight in kg)) + 0.6041
blood volume for women, in liters =
= (0.3561 * ((height in meters)^3)) + (0.03308 * (weight in kg)) + 0.1833
NOTE: Blood volume based on lean body mass tends to be more accurate than that based on actual body weight.
