Energy Expenditure in Critically Ill Adult Patients With Acute Brain Injury: Indirect Calorimetry vs. Predictive Equations

Introduction: Predictive equations (PE) are used in lieu of indirect calorimetry (IC) due to cost and limited resources; however, these equations may not be as accurate as IC in estimating resting energy expenditure (REE) in critically ill patients, putting them at risk of malnutrition. The purpose...
