MRATE: a Pascal program for on-line calculation of metabolic rate using wet gases

S C Nicol. Comput Methods Programs Biomed. 1991 Sep.

Abstract

MRATE is a Pascal program designed for on-line calculation of metabolic rate in an open circuit system, when outlet gases are not dried. Voltages from O2 and CO2 analysers, humidity and temperature probes and mass flow meter are digitised and used to calculate outlet flow, oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, respiratory quotient and metabolic rate. The program may be easily modified to suit a variety of experimental set-ups.
