Description

We measured resting energy expenditure (REE) in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) to assess their energy balance, and to make dietary planning in the Rehabilitation Center. In 24 persons with SCI, anthropometric measurements, dietary survey, and biochemical tests were carried out. We measured REE in them using with a portable indirect calorimeter, and total energy requirement (TER) was estimated. Their characteristics were as follows : age ; 43.6±16.8 (mean±SD) , height ; 168.0±8.6cm, weight ; 60.5±15.2kg, and BMI ; 21.5±5.6kg/m2. REE was 1,390±478kcal/day, and TER was estimated as 1,604±564kcal/day. Calculated energy requirement (NR) using Harris-Benedict Equation was 1,721±244kcal/day, and energy intake was 1,524±353kcal/day from dietary survey. The difference between calculated NR and TER was 83±713kcal/day. The patients who were assessed as negative energy balance lost their body weights during 1 month in the Center. These results demonstrated that dietary planning to maintain adequate energy balance should be made based on measurement of REE for individuals.
