Term Description

The measured metabolic equivalent of task (MET) calculated based on the measured exercise metabolic rate and the standard resting metabolic rate (RMR). The standard RMR is defined as 3.5 mL O2/kg/min. The exercise metabolic rate can be measured (this term), estimated [LOINC: 82262-7], or reported [LOINC: 82263-5]. Additionally, METs can be further adjusted based on patient demographics, such as age, sex and BMI [LOINC: 82271-8].

Part Description

LP217226-2   Standard resting metabolic rate
The standard resting metabolic rate (RMR)), by convention, is a reference baseline oxygen consumption constant of 3.5 mL O2/kg/min and is approximately equivalent to 1 kcal/kg/h or 4.184 kJ/kg/h. It is used along with the measured, estimated or reported activity (exercise) metabolic rate to calculate the metabolic equivalent of task (MET). Source: Regenstrief LOINC
