Kossovsky, Jimison Iavindrasana, Marinette Chikhi, Rodolphe Meyer, Didier Pittet, Walter Zingg, Claude PichardPredicted energy needs are calculated as 110% of the Harris-Benedict formula. The Fig 3 shows that the probability of healthcare-associated infection is high when measured energy intake is ≤ 70% of predicted energy needs according to the locally weighted scatterplot smoothing graphical procedure.
