Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To compare resting energy expenditure (REE), measured by indirect calorimetry, during ICU stay and post-ICU hospital stay.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To compare VCO2, VO2 and respiratory quotient (RQ), measured by the QNRG indirect calorimeter during ICU and post-ICU hospital stay. To compare REE measured by QNRG with the calculated REE using the VCO2-method and several other predictive equations. To associate REE and physical performance using the CPAx-score at the ICU- and hospital discharge.
