The neck circumference can be predicted based on a person's height.
Patient selection: middle-aged male
Parameters:
(1) neck circumference in cm
(2) height in meters
predicted neck circumference in cm =
= (5.5 * (height in meters) + 31
percentage of predicted neck circumference =
= (measured neck circumference) / (predicted) * 100%
Performance:
• Some patients with a different morphotype may differ from the estimated circumference.
