Our Blood Volume calculator enables one to find the total volume of blood in an individual's body. A condition wherein there is a severe low blood volume is medically known as hypovolemia. Likewise, a condition where there is high blood volume, it is called hypervolemia. Both can prove fatal and can lead to adverse health conditions. So, it becomes all the more important to calculate the level of blood volume a body has. The blood volume calculation is needed by doctors in diagnosis and treatment of various medical conditions including but not limited to kidney failure, hypertension, and congestive heart failure.
This estimate is arrived on the basis of the individual's gender, height, and weight. The blood volume in males is usually higher than that in females. An average adult male has around 5.5 liters of blood, while an average female has only around 3.5 liters of blood.
