Personalised energy targeting during venovenous ECMO: serial assessment of resting energy expenditure reveals phase-dependent metabolic demand and systematic discordance with predictive equations
In patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), metabolic demand varies dynamically across the disease course, while conventional indirect calorimetry in ECMO patients underestimates measured energy expenditure (measured EE) because a substantial proportion of gas exchange occurs across the membrane l...
