82274-2
ClinicalEstimated metabolic rate/Predicted RMR [Relative energy/Time]
Definition
The predicted metabolic equivalent of task (MET) calculated based on estimated exercise metabolic rate and the predicted resting metabolic rate (RMR). Four RMR prediction equations commonly used in clinical practice are Mifflin-St Jeor RMR, Owen RMR, WHO/FAO/UNU, and the Harris-Benedict RMR. [PMID: 15883556] The prediction equation that is used is reported using [LOINC: 82277-5].
