Q-NRG: The New Generation of Metabolic Monitors for Indirect Calorimetry in Clinical Practice
Introduced by COSMED, world-wide leader in the design of metabolic systems for clinical and human performance applications, Q-NRG is the first Indirect Calorimeter specifically intended for the measurement of Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) in patients who are mechanically ventilated or spontaneously breathing and for healthy subjects. Q-NRG is a unique product, resulting from COSMED’s collaboration with world-class institutes in the field of nutrition support in intensive care units. q-nrg.com
"The device is used as part of an international study to scientifically demonstrate the usefulness of how an adjusted dosage of clinical nutrition has a positive impact on the patient's chance of survival. In addition, more precise administration of artificial food is cost-effective for both the patient and society by reducing the number of infections and faster recovery. This means that in many cases the patient can go home faster." #indirectcalorimetry More info on http://bit.ly/COSMED_q-nrg
