82266-8
ClinicalEstimated Activity metabolic rate/Measured RMR [Relative energy/Time]
Definition
The measured metabolic equivalent of task (MET) calculated based on estimated exercise metabolic rate and the measured resting metabolic rate (RMR). The RMR can be measured using different indirect and direct calorimetry methods, and the method used is reported using [LOINC: 82296-5].
