In 140 ICU patients, receiving TPN as 25% glucose, energy expenditure was measured by indirect calorimetry and glucose intake was documented. Measured energy expenditure was 1.2±0.25 kcals/day x Harris-Benedict calculation. With 47% of ICU patients having a respiratory quotient (RQ)>1.0, indicating net lipogenesis, the average glucose intake was 4.48 mg/kg/min Those patients with an RQ<1.0 had a glucose intake of 2.89 mg/kg/min.
