Abstract:
The rate of resting energy expenditure (REE) was determined in 75 cases of burn patients with different total areas of burned wounds.Itwas found that.1.The rate of REE increased with the increase of the total area of burned wounds.2.When the total burned body surface area was equal,the rate of ERE increased more signficantly in the case with more extensive third degree burns.3.In the period immediately after the healing of the burned wounds,the rate of REE remained significantly higher than in the normal subjects.
