Overview
For information about our Metabolic Systems
LabScribe Metabolic Calculations
LabScribe automates and streamlines both the analysis and reporting of metabolic parameters from a test subject. The calculations are derived from the input data acquired during a test which would typically include oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations, lung volumes, and heart rates. Raw data can be viewed in real-time within the LabScribe Main window.Setup and Calibrate:
Streamlined setup and calibration reduces error and saves time.Measure:
- Relative and absolute oxygen consumption (VO2)
- Relative and absolute carbon dioxide production (VCO2)
- Respiratory Exchange Ratio (RER)
- Ventilatory Equivalent (VE/VO2)
- Expired Minute Ventilation (VE)
- Metabolic Equivalent (METS) and more
Plot:
The Metabolic Calculations Module also allows these parameters to be plotted against time or each other to yield valuable information about the aerobic fitness of the subject.These plots include:- VO2, VCO2, RER vs. Time
- VCO2 vs. VO2
- VE vs. VO2
- VE vs. VCO2
- HR, VCO2 vs. VO2
- %Fat
- VE vs. Watts
- HR, VO2/HR vs. Watts
- VO2, VCO2 vs. Watts
- VE/VO2, VE/VCO2 Vs. Watts
- Resting Energy Expenditure (REE)
- It is now possible to setup and save a subject profile while performing a fitness assessment test. During subsequent tests, the same subject profile can be loaded and data can be easily compared. This feature provides a convenient and simple way to track progress over time.
- An intuitive user interface has been created to setup and customize training zones for subjects based on % of maximum heart rate or within a specific heart rate range.
Control Exercise Equipment
- Treadmills: Treadmill that support the Trackmaster Protocol, such as treadmills from Trackmaster, Woodway can be controlled by Labscribe
- Ergometers : Ergometers supporting the ANT+ FEC Trainer protocol can be controlled by LabScribe
- Lode Ergometer: Lode Ergometers can be controlled by LabScribe.
