This article briefly reviews the literature supporting the use of enteral nutrition, which appears to be the preferred method of nutritional support in critically ill patients. Patients who benefit the most from this type of support, as well as the administration and route preferences in enteral nutrition, are discussed.

World Review of Nutrition and Dietetics, 2013
Enteral nutrition (EN) is defined as the delivery of nutrients beyond the oesophagus via feeding tubes, and the oral intake of dietary foods for special medical purposes. It should be provided in patients with at least a partially functioning gut, whose energy and nutrient needs cannot be met by a regular food intake.

Although parenteral nutrition has been used widely in the management of sick very low birth weight infants, a smooth transition to the enteral route is most desirable. Trophic feeding is the practice of feeding small volume of enteral feeds in order to stimulate the development of the immature gastrointestinal tract of the preterm infant. This practice

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 2006
Common to all pediatric patients receiving enteral nutrition is the inability to consume calories orally. This is often secondary to issues of inadequate weight gain, inadequate growth, prolonged feeding times, weight loss, a decrease in weight/age or weight/height ratios, or a persistent triceps skinfold thickness <5% for age.

Nursing care is key to positive outcomes in patients who require enteral nutrition. Understanding the decision-making process for the use of this therapy along with the steps of feeding initiation, advancement, monitoring, and complication prevention, gives nursing personnel the tools they need to deliver nutrition in a safe, cost-effective manner ...

Enteral nutrition is feeding the gastrointestinal tract either with food, oral supplements or via tube. It is generally safe, easy to administer and free of major complications. The most common problems relate to the tubes themselves, such as blockage and stoma infection.

Up to 33% of patients who are admitted to hospitals with hronic disease and trauma also present with moderate to evere malnutrition. This results in depletion of body cell mass, rolonged wound healing, and impaired function [1]. Malnurition is defined as unintentional weight loss of more than 10% f an individual’s body weight. It is classified as mild,

Although parenteral nutrition has been used widely in the management of sick very low birth weight (VLBW) infants, a smooth transition to the enteral route is most desirable. Animal studies have shown that long periods of starvation are associated with mucosal atrophy and reduction of enzymatic activity.
