No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to calibrate the Actigraph, Respironics and CamNtech monitors, in a wide range of children using energy expenditure measured by respiration calorimetry. Energy expenditure will be predicted from the combination of heart rate and activity measured by accelerometry. Prediction equations for energy expenditure will be tested and validated against a stable isotope method called doubly labeled water for the measurement of free-living total energy expenditure.
