Harris

Harris is a term used in the medical field, particularly in the context of the Harris Hip Score, a standard method of evaluating the outcomes of hip surgery, and the Harris Benedict Equation, a formula used to estimate an individual's total daily energy expenditure.

Harris Hip Score

The Harris Hip Score is a measurement tool used to assess the functionality of the hip joint after surgery. It was developed by Dr. William H. Harris in 1969. The score ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better hip function. The score is divided into four categories: pain, function, absence of deformity, and range of motion.

Harris Benedict Equation

The Harris Benedict Equation is a method used to estimate an individual's total daily energy expenditure (TDEE). It was developed by Harris and Benedict in 1919. The equation takes into account an individual's weight, height, age, and sex to calculate their basal metabolic rate (BMR), which is then multiplied by a factor representing their level of physical activity to determine their TDEE.
