Ideal body weight (IBW) was initially introduced by Ben J. Devine in 1974 to allow estimation of drug [[clearance (pharmacology)|clearances]] in obese patients; researchers have since shown that the [[metabolism]] of certain drugs relates more to IBW than total body weight. The term was based on the use of insurance data that demonstrated the relative mortality for males and females according to different height-weight combinations.</div>FuzzyBot
