Filter by:Although predicted REE calculated using the Penn state 1988 method agreed (ICC 0.61, p=0.00014) with the measured REE, all three predictive equations had a fixed bias and appeared to be inaccurate for predicting REE for liver transplant recipients. Therefore, precise measurements using indirect calorimetry may be helpful when treating critically ill patients to avoid underestimating or overestimating their metabolic needs.
