Summary

The purpose of this prospective single center study is to investigate if a developed algorithm is more accurate than the Broselow Tape (BT). For this study 500 patients are required to collect anonymized data (length, weight, age, anaesthesia material used during anaesthesia) for achieving a power of 80% during statistical analysis. The main hypothesis ist that the algorithm has a better accuracy than the BT.
