NCT03319329

Brief Summary

Currently there are no study related to Indirect Calorimetry (IC) has been done among hospitalised Malaysian ICU adult patients with its racial mix. The aim of this study is to perform a cross-sectional study in Malaysian critically ill patients to determine metabolic determinants that might influence resting energy expenditure (REE) and to develop predictive equation for the estimation of energy requirement using the regression based approach to increase the accuracy in calorie prescriptions. In addition, expected outcome of this study is to determine which equations have clinical usefulness among Malaysian adult critically ill patients and hope to introduce into routine clinical practice in the future if IC is not available.

Study Arms (1)

critically ill adult patients

Part I: A cross-sectional study to compare validity of several predictive equations used to predict REE in critically ill adult patients for staying ≤ 5 days, 6 - 10 days and \> 10 days by using indirect calorimetry (IC) as the reference standard. Part II: To develop predictive equation for the estimation of energy requirement by identifying variables that might influence REE of mechanically ventilated critically ill patients. Part III: To validate the newly developed predictive equation for the estimation of energy requirement by using Ten fold cross-validation approach

Device: Indirect Calorimetry

Interventions

REE measurements were using IC (Cosmed, Quark RMR 2.0, Indirect Calorimetry Lab, Italy). A standard protocol for conducting the measurement was followed (Schlein \& Coulter, 2014);(P. Singer \& Singer, 2016); (Taku Oshima et al., 2016). Before each measurement, the metabolic monitor was allowed to warm up for 30 min, and then gas and flowmeter calibrations were performed by an experienced dietitian or healthcare professional. The REE was recorded after a 30 min non-fasting steady state according to RMR protocol and manufacturer instructions.
