Q-NRG+ Example
Predictive equations are accurate for no more than 50% of ICU patients.1 Don't just estimate, measure accurately with Q-NRG+ Metabolic Monitor. Q-NRG+ is fast, accurate, and intuitive; enabling individualized metabolic measurements at the point of care.
Indications for Use
The Q-NRG+ portable Metabolic Monitors are indicated for the measurement of Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) for spontaneously breathing and ventilated patients, within the following populations: Spontaneously breathing subjects >15 kg (33 lb) when using a canopy; Spontaneously breathing subjects age >6 yrs and >10 kg (22 lb) when using a face mask; and Ventilated subjects age >10 yrs and >10 kg (22 lb). The Q-NRG+ Portable Metabolic Monitors are intended to be used in professional healthcare facilities only. Please read the accompanying full Indication(s) and Safety Information for Q-NRG+.

Designed by Clinicians for Clinicians
Q-NRG+ is a standalone indirect calorimeter for measuring REE in both ventilated and spontaneously breathing patients. Q-NRG+ was designed with the International Multicentric Study for Indirect Calorimetry (ICALIC).2
The goal: develop a new IC device that addresses barriers according to the needs of the clinician.
The conclusion: ICALIC partnered with industry to design the next generation IC technology that is accurate, reliable and easy-to-use.2
Q-NRG+: Next Generation IC Technology
- FAST. ~10-15 minutes to run test (including warm-up time) and minimal calibration3
- ACCURATE. REE within +/- 3% or 36 kcal/day, whichever is greater3
- INTUITIVE. Real-time, user-friendly dashboard. Portable and can be used on ventilated and spontaneously breathing patients3

Warnings
This device measures clinical parameters used to aid diagnosis and it is intended only as an adjunct device in patient assessment. In case of disturbing conditions, the shutdown is allowed because the safety of the device towards patients and operators is not affected, since the final evaluation is performed on the outcome data measured during a complete test. No modification of this device is allowed.
Precautions/Contraindications
Carefully re-check ventilator functionality after connection of the parts. Make sure that the patients cuff pressure is high enough to avoid air leakage. Manipulation of the ventilator circuit may cause leaks that may lower alveolar ventilation. For more information please refer to User’s Manual.
Rx Only: For safe and proper use of products mentioned herein, please refer to the Instructions for Use or Operator's Manual.
