LOINC Code 82267-6: Reported Activity metabolic rate/Measured RMR [Relative energy/Time]

82267-6 is a LOINC code used to identify Reported Activity metabolic rate/Measured RMR [Relative energy/Time] in laboratory and clinical observation data. You may see this code in lab systems, lab reports, EHR exports, interoperability feeds, or other structured clinical data exchanges. LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component Activity metabolic rate/Measured resting metabolic rate. It is commonly used with the system or sample type ^Patient.

What is this code?

LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component Activity metabolic rate/Measured resting metabolic rate. It is commonly used with the system or sample type ^Patient.

When is it used?

  • Used in lab systems, EHRs, and clinical data exchange.
  • May identify a test, observation, survey item, or clinical document request rather than a diagnosis.
  • Status: ACTIVE
  • Order vs observation: Both
  • Method: Reported

What it does not mean

  • The code identifies the observation or test, not the actual result.

Key facts

Reported Activity metabolic rate/Measured RMR [Relative energy/Time]
Activity metabolic rate/Measured resting metabolic rate
The measured metabolic equivalent of task (MET) calculated based on reported exercise metabolic rate and the measured resting metabolic rate (RMR). The RMR can be measured using different indirect and direct calorimetry methods, and the method used is reported using [LOINC82296-5].
