Aim:
To compare the energy expenditure (EE) assessed by ventilator-derived carbon dioxide production (EE-VCO2-ventilator) and the energy expenditure calculated from six predictive equations with the gold standard energy expenditure measured with indirect calorimetry (IC) in mechanically ventilated patients.

Assessment of Ventilation I: Respiratory Rate
A Ventilation assessment is critical for monitoring a patient's health status. Respiration, one of the most accessible vital signs, provides insights into the function of numerous body systems and can indicate serious health issues, such as brainstem injuries from head trauma.
