Byham-Gray et al reported equations for estimating the resting energy expenditure for a patient on maintenance hemodialysis. Difference versions allowed for variation in available laboratory data. The authors are from Rutgers University and Case Western Reserve University.
Patient selection: maintenance hemodialysis
Parameters:
(1) sex
(2) age in years
(3) post-dialysis weight in kilograms
(4) serum CRP in mg/dL
(5) hemoglobin A1C in percent
(6) serum creatinine in mg/dL
REE for male in kcal per day =
= 1027.8 - (5.19 * (age)) + (9.67 * (weight)) + (2.71 * (CRP))
= 1128.06 - (4.62 * (age)) + (10.33 * (weight)) - (21.79 * (hemoglobin AIC))
= 1024.41 - (4.90 * (age)) + (10.21 * (weight)) - (3.25 * (serum creatinine))
REE for female in kcal per day=
= 820.47 - (5.19 * (age)) + (9.67 * (weight)) + (2.71 * (CRP))
= 886.7 - (4.62 * (age)) + (10.33 * (weight)) - (21.79 * (hemoglobin AIC))
= 802 - (4.90 * (age)) + (10.21 * (weight)) - (3.25 * (serum creatinine))
