Corrected calcium is computed with a coefficient of 0.8 and attributed to Payne 1973 on virtually every clinical reference site. That paper's own abstract gives 1.0. The 0.8 and the metric 0.02 are the same number as each other, and both are 80.2% of what Payne published — and where 0.8 came from, we could not find out.
