Abstract:
Resting energy expenditure( REE) , which can better reflect the total energy expenditure of human body, is the common index for researches about energy expenditure. Energy metabolism changes in different physiological or pathological conditions. Especially in critically ill children, energy expenditure is unique, which is the result of stress, trauma, operation and inflammation. Furthermore, the REE of critically ill children is affected by primary diseases, severity of the diseases, time of the mechanical ventilation, mode of ventilation and so on. This review aims to summarize the studies about the REE of critically ill children.
