Indirect calorimetry (IC) is the gold standard for measuring energy expenditure (EE). Due to O2 uptake and CO2 removal by both the extracorporeal lung support (ECLS) membrane and the lungs, a conventional IC is not feasible and no data available. Our MEEP (Measuring Energy Expenditure in ECLS Patients) protocol enables the determination of the REE in patients with ECLS, the comparison to patients...
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is an important physiologic measure in nutrition research. In many instances it is not measured but estimated by predictive equations. The purpose of this study was to compare measured BMR (BMRm) with estimated BMR (BMRe) obtained by different equations.A convenient sample of 148 (89 women) 20–60 year-old subjects from the metropolitan area of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil participated...
