Parameter groups and ranges of normal values
The normal value ranges are based upon clinical experience and can vary from patient to patient. The stated
values are therefore offered without guarantee. Indexed parameters are related to body surface area,
predicted body weight or predicted body surface area (see Appendix) and can also be displayed as absolute
values.
