Introduction: Measurement of resting energy expenditure(REE) using indirect calorimetry(IC) in ICU’s patient is the gold standard. Unfortunately, technical difficulties and high cost prevent its widespread adoption. Predictive equations are largely used instead. We aim to validate commonly used pre...
