Nutripad App Description

This handy little app is a practical one-stop shop for the acute care dietitian. No longer do you need to look up several different calculators/equations, this app does it for you.

It offers flexibility to view the results of various formulas for energy expenditure in one page and let’s the Dietitian try different EN and PN formulas at different rates. This tool removes the brunt of number crunching to allow the Dietitian to focus on their assessment and recommendations. Best value on the market!
