Abstract:
Objective To study on the thermic effect of food (TEF) of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods Basal energy expenditure (BEE) of 12 male cases and resting energy expenditure (REE) of 11 male cases of COPD were detected by indirect calorimetry with metabolic cart. There were no significant difference in sex, age, height and body weight between two groups' e.g:TEF=REE-BEE.Results BEE and REE were 1114?208kcal/d,1433?136kcal/d respectively, the latter was higher 28% than BEE.Conclusion TEF increases significantly which may contributes to malnutrition and non-response to nutritional support in patients with COPD.
