KORRâ„¢ MetaCheckâ„¢
Metabolic Rate Analysis System
Features
The MetaCheck is an
affordable metabolic analyzer that provides an accurate, professional metabolic
rate measurement. Measuring a person’s metabolic rate allows you to
construct an effective weight loss plan based on individual caloric
needs. In the past, these measurements have only been available by using
cumbersome, expensive equipment, and were generally only available at
hospitals. The MetaCheck is simple to use and maintain, using disposable
testing supplies and requiring no additional computer to operate.
Why Choose MetaCheck?
Direct Oxygen Measurement
MetaCheck directly
measures the concentration of oxygen a person breathes out. Each client merely
breathes through a simple mouthpiece as all the exhaled air is collected and
analyzed. Because there is a direct correlation between oxygen consumed and
calories burned (4.813 calories for every milliliter of oxygen consumed), an
accurate measurement of oxygen consumption is an effective measurement of
calorie consumption.
Mixing chamber Technology
A mixing chamber is
considered the “Gold Standard†for a Metabolic Measurement. In the past, this
system has been complicated and expensive, making it only practical for ICU’s
and research departments. KORR advancements in technology make this method feasible
for health and fitness facilities of any size.
Self-Calibrating
Adjustments for
barometric pressure, temperature, and humidity are key to an accurate VOâ‚‚ measurement. The
MetaCheck measures these parameters during each routine calibration cycle, then
automatically compensates to standard (STPD) conditions.
Clean
Other Metabolic
Analyzers require the clients to breathe through a measurement device located
at the mouth. The air each person breathes in will pass through the same
mechanism as countless clients before them. KORR uses a one-way valve in the
disposable MetaBreather mouthpiece. This draws in fresh room air with each
inspiratory breath and eliminates concerns about cross contamination. After
each test, the disposable is thrown away and there is no need to clean
equipment between clients.
Simple
The MetaCheck has a
simple user interface that assists the operator from start to finish. No
training or certification is required. It does not require a computer or
software. Everything you need is at your fingertips!
