About the SmartFlow diet calculator

SmartFlow has a diet calculator. Use the diet calculator to record more information about a patient's diet.

You can use the diet calculator to:
  • Calculate a patient's resting energy requirements (RER)
  • Record the type of food that you give the patient
  • Record the calorific value of the food
You can use the diet calculator with:
  • The Hills brand of food
  • The Purina brand of food
  • The Royal Canin brand of food
Note: You cannot use the diet calculator for a different brand of food. If necessary, you can select the Diet parameter and manually record the calorific value of the food.
To show the calculator, select the plus button adjacent to Activity, and select the applicable brand. The image that follows shows the diet calculator for the Hills brand of food:
