    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Accurate measurement of oxygen consumption is crucial for assessing metabolic rate.
    • Current methods for calculating oxygen consumption can be time-consuming and complex.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a rapid and user-friendly tool for deriving oxygen consumption.
    • To simplify the calculation process using readily available respiratory parameters.

    Main Methods:

    • A nomogram was designed based on established physiological equations.
    • The nomogram utilizes expired minute volume, fractional expired CO2, and fractional expired O2.

    Main Results:

    • The devised nomogram allows for the rapid derivation of oxygen consumption.
    • The tool provides a simplified graphical method for metabolic assessment.

    Conclusions:

    • The nomogram offers an efficient method for estimating oxygen consumption.
    • This tool can aid in clinical and research settings requiring metabolic rate determination.
