Abstract
In order to obtain the REE in people with an excess of weight using such simple methods as the formulas, it seems more advisable to do so by adapting the weight. With regards to the new instruments which the health-care professional has, they reduce the measurement times and they are easier to handle, although perhaps they need to be adapted by the manufacturer to the different types of population. Even so, these methods show a good correlation with the indirect calorimetry.
