Abstract
The Chinese Society of Critical Care Medicine (CSCCM) has developed clinical practice guidelines for nutrition assessment and monitoring for patients in adult intensive care units (ICUs) in China. This guideline focuses on nutrition evaluation and metabolic monitoring to achieve optimal and personalized nutrition therapy for critically ill patients. This guideline was developed by experts in critical care medicine and evidence-based medicine methodology and was developed after a thorough review of the system and a summary of relevant trials or studies published from 2000 to July 2023. A total of 18 recommendations were formed and consensus was reached through discussions and reviews by expert groups in critical care medicine, parenteral and enteral nutrition, and surgery. The recommendations are based on currently available evidence and cover several key fields, including screening and assessment, evaluation and assessment of enteral feeding intolerance, metabolic and nutritional measurement and monitoring during nutrition therapy, and organ function evaluation related to nutrition supply. Each question was analyzed according to the Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome (PICO) principle. In addition, interpretations were provided for four questions that did not reach a consensus but may have potential clinical and research value. The plan is to update this nutrition assessment and monitoring guideline using the international guideline update method within 3-5 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the incidence of enteral nutrition intolerance (ENI) in patients with sepsis and explore potential risk factors. METHODS A case-control study was conducted in patients with sepsis who were receiving enteral nutrition (EN) at a tertiary hospital in China. The included patients were divided into the ENI group and the non-ENI group. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the risk factors for ENI. RESULTS A total of 859 patients were included in the study. Among them, 288 (33.53%) patients experienced symptoms of ENI, including diarrhea, vomiting, bloating, and gastric retention. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation H (APACHE H) score, thoracocentesis, and usage of cardiotonic drugs (namely, inotropes) were independent predictors of the ENI. CONCLUSION The incidence of ENI is relatively high in patients with sepsis, especially in those who have higher APACHE H scores, have undergone thoracocentesis, and have received inotropes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Critically ill patients with cancer are at high risk of developing malnutrition, negatively affecting their outcome. AIM To critically analyse nursing staff's adherence to nutrition management guidelines for critically unwell patients with cancer and identify barriers which prevent this. Two areas of nutrition management were evaluated: early initiation (<48 h from admission) of enteral nutrition (EN) and continuation of EN without interruption. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective data analysis was performed on mechanically ventilated adult patients admitted to a single cancer centre. Data from electronic patient records (EPR) were collected. Health care professionals' (HCP) documentation was analysed, and a nursing staff focus group (n = 5) was undertaken. RESULTS Sixty-four patient records were included. Early EN was not administered in 67% (n = 43) of cases. The reasons for the three longest interruptions to EN feed were as follows: delays in EN tube insertion, gastric residual volumes (GRVs) less than the recommended feed discontinuation threshold and endotracheal intubation. Four main themes relating to barriers to practice were identified from the focus group data analysis: HCPs' approach towards nutrition management, the patient's physiological condition and stability, multi-disciplinary team (MDT) communication and guidance on nutrition management, and practical issues with patient care. CONCLUSIONS Multi-disciplinary communication difficulties, lack of clear guidelines and inadequate awareness of the importance of nutrition for critically ill patients with cancer were barriers identified preventing optimal nutrition management. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Nursing education is fundamental to help break down the barriers to practice which prevent critically ill patients from receiving optimal nutrition management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite increasing evidence of the potential inaccuracy and unwarranted practice of regular GRV measurement in critically in adults, this practice persists within the United Kingdom. AIM To explore adult intensive care nurses' decision-making around the practice of GRV measurement to guide enteral feeding. METHODS A cross-sectional 16 item electronic survey in four adult intensive care units (ICUs) in England and Wales. RESULTS Two hundred and seventy-three responses were obtained across four ICUs with acceptable response rates for most [Unit 1 74 /127 = 58.2%; Unit 2 87/129 = 67.4%; Unit 3 77/120 = 64.1%; Unit 4 35/168 = 20.8%]. Most (243/273 (89%) reported measuring GRV 4-6 hourly, with most (223/273 82%) reporting that the main reason was to assess feed tolerance or intolerance and 37/273 (13.5%) saying their unit protocol required it. In terms of factors affecting decision-making, volume obtained was the most important factor, followed by the condition of the patient, with aspirate colour and appearance less important. When asked how they would feel about not measuring GRV routinely, the majority (78.2%) of nurses felt worried (140/273 = 51.2%) or very worried (74/273 = 27%). CONCLUSIONS Factors affecting the nurses' decision-making around GRV were based largely on fear of risk (around vomiting and pulmonary aspiration) and compliance with unit protocols. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Despite increasing evidence suggesting it is unnecessary, nurses' beliefs around the value of this practice persist and it continues to be embedded into unit protocols around feeding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Patients who experience gastrointestinal (GI) intolerance and hyperglycemia (or glucose intolerance) may not achieve appropriate caloric requirements and experience poor outcomes. The aim was to examine patient characteristics, disease severity, and enteral nutrition (EN) formula use in relation to feeding intolerance and healthcare resource utilization. METHODS A retrospective, cross-sectional design using real-world data from PINC AI™ Healthcare Database, 2015-2019 was used. Critically ill hospitalized adults who required ≥3 days of 100% whey peptide-based EN, other peptide-based diets, or intact-protein standard and diabetic EN formulas were included. Primary outcomes were enteral feeding intolerance, including GI intolerance and hyperglycemia. Pairwise comparisons of other peptide-based and standard intact-protein groups with 100% whey-peptide were completed. Associations between EN group with GI intolerance and hyperglycemia, respectively, were evaluated via multivariable logistic regressions. RESULTS Across 67 US hospitals, 19,679 inpatients (3242,100% whey-peptide, 3121 other peptide-based, and 13,316 standard intact-protein) were included. The 100% whey-peptide group had higher severity of illness and frequencies of comorbidities compared with other peptide-based and standard intact-protein groups. Hospital length of stay, intensive care unit stay, and 30-day readmission were similar across peptide-based cohorts. After controlling for demographic, visit, and severity characteristics, odds of GI intolerance were 18% higher for the other peptide-based group and 15% higher for the standard intact-protein group compared with the 100% whey-peptide group (each P < 0.03). In secondary analysis, odds of hyperglycemia were 81% higher for the other peptide-based group compared with the subgroup of very high-protein/low carbohydrate 100% whey-peptide (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Lower GI intolerance and greater glycemic control were associated with the use of 100% whey-peptide formulas relative to other formulas. Appropriate and optimal delivery of EN using specialized peptide-based formulas is a strategy to minimize feeding intolerance and benefit critically ill patients.

Abstract
Purpose With an estimated prevalence of 38%, enteral feeding intolerance (EFI) is common in critically ill patients receiving enteral nutrition (EN), and is associated with higher mortality and longer duration of mechanical ventilation. Various methods have been reported to decrease the incidence of EFI during EN, such as post-pyloric feeding, continuous EN delivery, abdominal massage, and probiotic supplementation. However, several studies reported conflicting results. Inappropriate interventions may cause gastrointestinal (GI) injury. This study aims to design a protocol based on Mukbang videos, which are widely watched online, to detect their effects on the incidence of EFI, nutritional status, incidence of infectious complications, and activities of daily living. Patients and Methods We will conduct a three-arm, parallel-design, randomized controlled trial that will be implemented in 273 patients from intensive care units. Participants will be randomized into one of the three intervention arms (1:1:1), which will be performed by a research assistant. Participants were allocated to three groups: (a) watching mukbang video, (b) watching a cooking show, and (c) watching a non-food content video. Prior to EN initiation, each participant will watch a ten-minute mukbang video, cookery show, or non-food content video. Conclusion Mukbang videos show food, expressions of mukbangers and eating sounds. If it effectively reduces the incidence of EFI, leads to greater nutritional status, lower incidence of infectious complications, and a higher level of independence among patients compared with watching cooking videos or non-food content videos, it has broad dissemination potential as a non-invasive, easily assessing, and using method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A unified clinical definition of feeding intolerance (FI) is urged for better management of enteral nutrition (EN) in critically ill patients. We aimed to identify optimum clinical FI definitions based on reported evidence. METHODS We searched clinical studies comparing FI with non-FI with a clear definition, summarized the evidence by random-effect meta-analyses, and rated the certainty of evidence by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation frameworks. RESULTS Five thousand five hundred twenty-five records were identified, of which 26 eligible studies enrolled 25,189 adult patients. Most patient-centered outcomes were associated with FI overall. Low to very low certainty evidence established FI defined as large gastric residual volume (GRV) ≥ 250 ± 50 mL combined with any other gastrointestinal symptoms (GIS) had a significant association with high mortalities in particular all-cause hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR] 1.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.40-2.57), the incidence of pneumonia (OR 1.54, 95% CI 1.13-2.09) and prolonged length of hospital stay (mean difference 4.20, 95% CI 2.08-6.32), with a moderate hospital prevalence (41.49%, 95% CI 31.61-51.38%). 3-day enteral feeding (EF) delivered percentage < 80% had a moderate hospital prevalence (38.23%, 95% CI 24.88-51.58) but a marginally significant association with all-cause hospital mortality (OR 1.90, 95% CI 1.03-3.50). CONCLUSIONS In critically ill adult patients receiving EN, the large-GRV-centered GIS to define FI seemed to be superior to 3-day EF-insufficiency in terms of both close associations with all-cause hospital mortality and acceptable hospital prevalence (Registered PROSPERO: CRD42022326273). TRIAL REGISTRATION The protocol for this review and meta-analysis was registered with PROSPERO: CRD42022326273. Registered 10 May 2022.

Abstract
Background Intravenous infusions of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) and prone positioning are recommended for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19. The safety of enteral nutrition (EN) during these treatments is unclear. This study assessed EN tolerance and safety during NMBA infusion in proned and nonproned patients with ARDS due to COVID-19. Methods This retrospective study evaluated patients who were admitted to a tertiary-care ICU between March and December 2020, had ARDS due to COVID-19, and received NMBA infusion. We assessed their EN data, gastrointestinal events, and clinical outcomes. The primary outcome was gastrointestinal intolerance, defined as a gastric residual volume (GRV) ≥500 ml or 200-500 ml with vomiting. We compared proned and nonproned patients. Results We studied 181 patients (mean age 61.2 ± 13.7 years, males 71.1%, and median body mass index 31.4 kg/m2). Most (63.5%) patients were proned, and 94.3% received EN in the first 48 hours of NMBA infusion at a median dose <10 kcal/kg/day. GRV was mostly below 100 ml. Gastrointestinal intolerance occurred in 6.1% of patients during NMBA infusion and 10.5% after NMBA discontinuation (similar rates in proned and nonproned patients). Patients who had gastrointestinal intolerance during NMBA infusion had a higher hospital mortality (90.9% versus 60.0%; p=0.05) and longer mechanical ventilation duration and ICU and hospital stays compared with those who did not. Conclusion In COVID-19 patients on NMBA infusion for ARDS, EN was provided early at low doses for most patients, and gastrointestinal intolerance was uncommon in proned and nonproned patients, occurred at a higher rate after discontinuing NMBAs and was associated with worse outcomes. Our study suggests that EN was tolerated and safe in this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between gastrointestinal intolerance during early enteral nutrition (EN) and adverse clinical outcomes in critically ill patients is controversial. We aimed to assess the prognostic value of enteral feeding intolerance (EFI) markers during early ICU stays and to predict early EN failure using a machine learning (ML) approach. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of data from adult patients admitted to Beilinson Hospital ICU between January 2011 and December 2018 for more than 48 h and received EN. Clinical data, including demographics, severity scores, EFI markers, and medications, along with 72 h after admission, were analyzed by ML algorithms. Prediction performance was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristics (AUCROC) of a ten-fold cross-validation set. RESULTS The datasets comprised 1584 patients. The means of the cross-validation AUCROCs for 90-day mortality and early EN failure were 0.73 (95% CI 0.71-0.75) and 0.71 (95% CI 0.67-0.74), respectively. Gastric residual volume above 250 mL on the second day was an important component of both prediction models. CONCLUSIONS ML underlined the EFI markers that predict poor 90-day outcomes and early EN failure and supports early recognition of at-risk patients. Results have to be confirmed in further prospective and external validation studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Recently, the Gastrointestinal Dysfunction Score (GIDS) was developed for use with critically ill patients. This study evaluated the association of GIDS with disease severity and clinical outcomes to assess the technical feasibility of using GIDS to reflect the severity and short-term prognosis of critically ill patients. METHODS Association between Gastrointestinal Dysfunction Score (GIDS) and disease severity and prognosis in critically ill patients: A prospective, observational study. This was a prospective observational study involving adult patients in two Intensive Care Units (ICUs). During the first seven days of ICU admission, GIDS, acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II), and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores were assessed daily. RESULTS A total of 276 patients from two centers were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into GIDS 0-1 (121, 43.8%) and GIDS 2-4 (155, 56.2%). The ICU length of stay and 28-day mortality in the GIDS 2-4 group were significantly higher than the GIDS 0-1 group (P = 0.032, P = 0.001, respectively). The APACHE II and SOFA scores in the GIDS 2-4 group were also significantly higher (P < 0.001). The ROC curves of GIDS, AGI, APACHE II, and SOFA scores on the first day of ICU admission for the prediction of 28-day mortality showed that the AUC of GIDS was 0.702 (95%CI 0.628, 0.775; P < 0.001). The AUC for GIDS + SOFA was 0.719 (95%CI 0.648, 0.790; P < 0.001), compared with SOFA alone (AUC = 0.703), showing improved predictive power for 28-day mortality. CONCLUSIONS GIDS represents a step toward a reliable clinical tool for GI dysfunction to assess disease severity and short-term prognosis in critically ill patients. In addition, combining GIDS with SOFA score may better predict mortality risk compared to SOFA score alone.

Abstract
The use of enteral nutrition (EN) continues to increase given benefits. However, with this increase in use, it is also becoming evident that enteral feeding intolerance (EFI) is also quite prevalent, leading to the inability to meet nutrition needs in many patients. Given the wide variability in the EN population as well as the number of formulas available, there is not a clear consensus regarding the best approach to EFI management. One approach that is emerging to improve EN tolerance is the use of peptide-based formulas (PBFs). PBFs refer to enteral formulas containing proteins that have been enzymatically hydrolyzed to dipeptides and tripeptides. These hydrolyzed proteins are often combined with higher medium-chain triglyceride content to generate an enteral formula that is essentially easier to absorb and utilize. Emerging data demonstrate that the use of PBF in patients with EFI may improve clinical outcomes along with a corresponding reduction in healthcare utilization and potentially the cost of care. This review aims to navigate through key clinical applications and benefits of PBF and to discuss relevant data shared in the literature.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize recent research on critical care nutrition focusing on the optimal composition, timing, and monitoring of enteral feeding strategies for (post)-ICU patients. We provide new insights on energy and protein recommendations, feeding intolerance, and describe nutritional practices for coronavirus disease 2019 ICU patients. RECENT FINDINGS The use of indirect calorimetry to establish individual energy requirements for ICU patients is considered the gold standard. The limited research on optimal feeding targets in the early phase of critical illness suggests avoiding overfeeding. Protein provision based upon the absolute lean body mass is rational. Therefore, body composition measurements should be considered. Body impedance analysis and muscle ultrasound seem reliable, affordable, and accessible methods to assess body composition at the bedside. There is inadequate evidence to change our practice of continuous enteral feeding into intermittent feeding. Finally, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 patients are prone to underfeeding due to hypermetabolism and should be closely monitored. SUMMARY Nutritional therapy should be adapted to the patient's characteristics, diagnosis, and state of metabolism during ICU stay and convalescence. A personalized nutrition plan may prevent harmful over- or underfeeding and attenuate muscle loss. Despite novel insights, more research is warranted into tailored nutrition strategies during critical illness and convalescence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutrition support is an essential part of critical care medicine. It is commonly accepted that for the critically ill patient, enteral nutrition (EN) is favored. For the patient who receives neuromuscular blockades, EN may be held, or initiation delayed, because of concerns for EN intolerance. We hypothesized there would be no difference in EN tolerance between groups receiving cisatracurium while receiving EN compared with those not receiving cisatracurium. METHODS This was a retrospective study that included 459 patients from a combined medical and surgical intensive care unit. There were 44 patients who received cisatracurium with EN and 415 who received EN alone. Data collected included gastric residual volume (GRV) and emesis occurrences, new-onset abdominal pain, new or worsening abdominal distention, and bowel ischemia. RESULTS There were more patients with new or worsening abdominal distention in the group receiving cisatracurium (31.82% vs 14.94%; P < 0.01) as well as occurrences of GRV > 300 ml (P < 0.01). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups regarding emesis, new-onset abdominal pain, or bowel ischemia. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that it is acceptable to provide patients with EN who are receiving cisatracurium.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE the aim of this study was to compare the incidence rate of feeding intolerance (FI) during supine (SP) or prone positioning (PP) in critically ill COVID-19 patients. METHODS this was a retrospective cohort study of critically ill patients with overweight or obesity who received enteral nutrition (EN) in prone or supine positioning continuously during the first five days of mechanical ventilation. Nutritional risk, anthropometric measurements and body composition were assessed at the first 24 hours upon Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission. Biochemical and clinical variables (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment [SOFA], Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II [APACHE II], Acute Kidney Injury [AKI] or comorbidities diagnosis) were collected. Pharmacotherapy (prokinetics, sedatives or neuromuscular blocking agents) and FI incidence (gastric residual volume [GRV] ≥ 200 ml or ≥ 500 ml, vomiting or diarrhea) were daily recorded. Constipation was defined as the absence of evacuation for five consecutive days. RESULTS eighty-two patients were included. Higher rate of prophylactic prokinetic prescription was observed in PP (42.8 vs 12.5 %, p = 0.002). GRV ≥ 200 in supine position was not different when compared to PP (p = 0.47). Vomiting episodes in supine compared to PP showed no difference between groups (15 % vs 24 %, p = 0.31). No differences in diarrhea events were detected (10 % vs 4.7 %, p = 0.36). Constipation was common in both groups (95 % vs 82 %, p = 0.06). CONCLUSION FI during prone position was not different in comparison to supine position. Routinely use of prokinetics in continuous prone position may help to prevent FI incidence. Algorithm development is necessary for FI prevention and treatment so to avoid EN interruptions and adverse clinical outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Early initiation of enteral nutrition (EN) is often not feasible due to the high prevalence of gastrointestinal dysfunction that constitutes one of the leading nonavoidable causes for discontinuing or delaying enteral feeding in critically ill. This review summarizes current evidence on the role of gastric ultrasound as a management and monitoring tool for enteral nutrition in critically ill patients. RECENT FINDINGS The ultrasound meal accommodation test, the gastrointestinal and urinary track sonography (GUTS), and other gastric ultrasound protocols used to diagnose and treat gastrointestinal dysfunction in critically ill patients have not changed the outcome. However, this intervention could help clinicians with accurate daily clinical decisions. The dynamic changes in the cross-sectional area (CSA) diameter could help to access gastrointestinal dynamics results immediately, provide a valuable guide to initiate EN, predict feeding intolerance (FI), and aid in following treatment response. More studies are necessary to determine the complete scope and true added clinical value of these tests in critically ill patients. SUMMARY Using gastric point of care ultrasound (POCUS) is a noninvasive, radiation-free, and inexpensive method. Implementing the ultrasound meal accommodation test in ICU patients might become a step forward to ensure safe early enteral nutrition in critically ill patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In critically ill patients, optimal protein provision remains a challenge given the wide range in recommended protein delivery in international guidelines and the lack of robust, high quality evidence. As patients are confronted with poor functional outcomes after admission, often attributed to muscle wasting and persisting for multiple years, there is a pressing need for optimal nutritional strategies in the ICU, particularly including protein. This review will discuss the recent literature with regard to purpose, timing and mode of protein delivery. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies on the effect of dose and timing of protein on clinical and functional outcomes are largely observational in nature and the protein delivery considered as "high" still often only nears the lower end of current recommendations. The majority of trials observed no effect of protein supplementation on mortality, muscle strength or function, though some report attenuation of muscle volume loss, especially when combined with muscle activation. There is no strong evidence that ICU patients should receive supplementation with any specific amino acids. SUMMARY Though adequate protein provision is likely important, it is difficult to come to a uniform conclusion regarding dosing and timing due to conflicting results in mostly observational studies as well as different cut-off values for high, moderate and low protein intake. This topic is currently subject to large clinical trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Enteral administration of medications to critically ill patients may be advantageous to other routes of administration. This review summarizes key considerations for the bedside clinician when medications are administered through enteral access devices (EADs). RECENT FINDINGS Critical illness is associated with gastrointestinal dysfunction that inconsistently affects drug dispersion and absorption and may enhance or reduce bioavailability. Other factors such as the first-pass metabolism, microbiome alterations and the concomitant use of other medications (vasopressors, acid suppressants) may influence drug absorption. Concurrent administration of medications with enteral nutrition is fraught with potential errors. Drug-nutrient and drug-drug interactions may lead to tube occlusion. Although liquid formulations of medications are preferred over solid dosage forms for EAD administration, they may be hyperosmotic or contain sorbitol to cause gastrointestinal disturbances. The size and placement of the EAD tube may influence drug dispersion and absorption to affect the pharmacokinetic profile and efficacy of a particular drug. SUMMARY The therapeutic effect may be diminished, or toxicity enhanced when medications are administered through EADs in the critically ill. The bedside clinician must be aware of factors impacting the bioavailability of enterally administered medications and be cognizant that the effect will differ by medication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enteral nutrition (EN) is essential for critically ill patients. However, some patients will have enteral feeding intolerance (EFI) in the process of EN.
AIM To develop a clinical prediction model to predict the risk of EFI in patients receiving EN in the intensive care unit.
METHODS A prospective cohort study was performed. The enrolled patients’ basic information, medical status, nutritional support, and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms were recorded. The baseline data and influencing factors were compared. Logistic regression analysis was used to establish the model, and the bootstrap resampling method was used to conduct internal validation.
RESULTS The sample cohort included 203 patients, and 37.93% of the patients were diagnosed with EFI. After the final regression analysis, age, GI disease, early feeding, mechanical ventilation before EN started, and abnormal serum sodium were identified. In the internal validation, 500 bootstrap resample samples were performed, and the area under the curve was 0.70 (95%CI: 0.63-0.77).
CONCLUSION This clinical prediction model can be applied to predict the risk of EFI.

Abstract
Background: The effect of gut microbiota on enteral nutrition tolerance in critically ill patients is unclear. Methods: Non-abdominal sepsis patients in an ICU, sorted by whether they reached 20 Kcal/kg/day on the 3rd day of EN, were divided into tolerance and intolerance groups. Their feces on day 1 and day 3 of EN initiation were collected for 16s rDNA and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) testing. Results: There were 14 patients included in the tolerance group and 10 in the intolerance group. On EN day 1, the OTUs and microbiota diversity were higher in the tolerance group than in the intolerance group. The ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes was higher in the intolerance group on EN day 1. The genus Parabacteroides were the most significantly elevated in the tolerance group. On EN day 3, the genus Escherichia-Shigella was the most significantly elevated in the tolerance group. On EN day 3, the levels of SCFA decreased more significantly in the intolerance group. Conclusion: Enteral nutrition tolerance is associated with microbiota features and short-chain fatty acid levels. A higher ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes and microbiota diversity on EN day 1 may help in the early prediction of EN tolerance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Critically ill COVID-19 patients seem hypermetabolic and difficult to feed enterally, due to gastro-intestinal (GI) symptoms such as high gastric residual volumes (GRV) and diarrhea. Our aim was to describe the association of nutritional intake and GI symptoms during first 14 days of ICU admission. METHODS Observational study including critically ill adult COVID-19 patients. Data on nutritional intake [enteral nutrition (EN) or parenteral nutrition] and GI symptoms were collected during 14 days after ICU admission. Target energy and protein feeding goals were calculated conform ESPEN guidelines. GI symptoms included GRV (ml/d), vomiting, abdominal distension, and faeces (ml/d). High GRV's were classified as ≥2 times ≥150 ml/d and diarrhea as Bristol stool chart ≥6. GI symptoms were defined as mild if at least one symptom occurred and as moderate when ≥2 symptoms occurred. Acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) grades of III were classified as GI dysfunction and grades of IV were considered as GI failure with severe impact on distant organs. Linear mixed model analysis was performed to explore the development of nutritional intake and GI symptoms over time at day (D) 0, 4, 10, and 14. RESULTS One hundred and fifty patients were included [75% male; median age 64 years (IQR 54-70)]. BMI upon admission was 28 kg/m2 (IQR 25-33), of which 43% obese (BMI > 30 kg/m2). Most patients received EN during admission (98% D4; 96% D10-14). Mean energy goals increased from 87% at D4 to 93% D10-14 and protein goals (g/kg) were increasingly achieved during admission (84% D4; 93% D10-14). Presence of moderate GI symptoms decreased (10% D0; 6% D4-10; 5% D14), reversely mild GI symptoms increased. Occurrence of GI dysfunction fluctuated (1% D0; 18% D4; 12% D10; 8% D14) and none of patients developed grade IV GI failure. Development of high GRV fluctuated (5% D0; 23% D4; 14% D10; 8% D14) and occurrence of diarrhea slightly increased during admission (5% D0; 22% D4; 25% D10; 27% D14). Linear mixed models showed only an association between AGI grades III and lower protein intake at day 10 (p = 0.020). CONCLUSION Occurrence of GI symptoms was limited and seems no major barrier for EN in our group of critically COVID-19 patients. Nutritional intake was just below requirements during the first 14 days of ICU admission. The effect on nutritional status remains to be studied.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIM Enteral feeding intolerance (EFI) as a result of gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction in critically ill adults can lead to suboptimal nutritional delivery, increasing the risk of hospital acquired malnutrition. There are no validated measures of EFI or consensus as to which measures could be used to define EFI. The aim of this scoping review is to explore the validity of biomarkers, physiological or functional measures of GI dysfunction and EFI in critically ill adults characterising their use in routine clinical practice to identify those with GI dysfunction to better guide nutritional support. METHODS Database searches were completed in Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL and Web of Science using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. The search was performed until June 2022. Articles were included if they reported original studies that identify potential biomarkers or functional measures of EFI in critically ill adults. A nine-stage process was completed to extract and complete data synthesis. RESULTS 139 unique articles were identified. Following review of titles and abstracts, 114 of these articles were excluded, three further articles were excluded after full text review and 22 articles met the inclusion criteria. A thematic analysis of the articles included identified three overarching themes of GI dysfunction: (1) Serum biomarkers, (2) Physiological markers, and (3) Functional markers. Within the category of serum biomarkers, a further three sub-categories were identified: (i) enterohormones, (ii) markers of enterocyte function, and iii) cytokines and neurotransmitters. Some associations were seen between EFI and heparin binding protein, intra-abdominal pressure, cholecystokinin and acetylcholine levels but no markers are currently suitable for daily clinical use. CONCLUSIONS Further larger studies are required to characterise the relationships between serum biomarkers, physiological and functional makers of GI dysfunction in critically ill adults. A robust definition of GI dysfunction should be included in any future research.

Abstract
Background A defining feature of prolonged critical illness is muscle wasting, leading to impaired recovery. Supplementation with a tailored blend of amino acids may bolster the innate gut defence, promote intestinal mucosa repair and limit muscle loss. Methods This was a monocentric, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that included patients with sepsis or acute respiratory distress syndrome. Patients received a specific combination of five amino acids or placebo mixed with enteral feeding for 21 days. Markers of renal function, gut barrier structure and functionality were collected at baseline and 1, 2, 3 and 8 weeks after randomization. Muscle structure and function were assessed through MRI measurements of the anterior quadriceps volume and by twitch airway pressure. Data were compared between groups relative to the baseline. Results Thirty-five critically ill patients were randomized. The amino acid blend did not impair urine output, blood creatinine levels or creatinine clearance. Plasma citrulline levels increased significantly along the treatment period in the amino acid group (difference in means [95% CI] 5.86 [1.72; 10.00] nmol/mL P = 0.007). Alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase concentrations were lower in the amino acid group than in the placebo group at one week (ratio of means 0.5 [0.29; 0.86] (P = 0.015) and 0.73 [0.57; 0.94] (P = 0.015), respectively). Twitch airway pressure and volume of the anterior quadriceps were greater in the amino acid group than in the placebo group 3 weeks after randomization (difference in means 10.6 [0.99; 20.20] cmH20 (P = 0.035) and 3.12 [0.5; 5.73] cm3/kg (P = 0.022), respectively). Conclusions Amino acid supplementation increased plasma citrulline levels, reduced alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase levels, and improved twitch airway pressure and anterior quadriceps volume.

Abstract
Disruption of normal gastrointestinal (GI) function in critical illness is linked to increased morbidity and mortality, and GI dysmotility is frequently observed in patients who are critically ill. Despite its high prevalence, the diagnosis and management of GI motility problems in the intensive care unit remain very challenging, given that critically ill patients often cannot verbalize symptoms and the general lack of understanding of underlying pathophysiology. Common clinical presentations of GI dysmotility issues among critically ill patients include: (1) high gastric residual volumes, acid reflux, and vomiting, (2) abdominal distention, and (3) diarrhea. In this review, we discuss the differential diagnosis for intensive care unit patients with symptoms and signs concerning GI motility issues. There are many myths and longstanding misconceptions about the diagnosis and management of GI dysmotility in critical illness. Here, we uncover these myths and discuss relevant evidence in each subject area, with the goal of re-conceptualizing GI motility disorders in critical care and providing evidence-based recommendations for clinical care.

Abstract
Background Enteral feeding intolerance, energy-protein malnutrition, and muscle wasting are common conditions in the critical care setting. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effect of synbiotic supplementation on enteral feed volume, energy and protein homeostasis, and muscle mass maintenance in critically ill adult patients. Methods A consecutive of 42 patients admitted to the Edalatian Medical ICU, requiring enteral nutrition (EN), were prospectively randomized to receive the synbiotic capsule (containing a combination of Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Streptococcus, and fructooligosaccharides) or placebo (21 patients in each group) for a maximum of 14 days. Enteral intolerance and energy homeostasis were evaluated on a daily basis. Nitrogen balance and 24-h urine creatinine excretion were recorded on days 1 and 14. Mid-arm circumference was recorded every 3 days. Results Mean EN volume, energy, and protein intake per day were 962.5 ± 533.82 ml, 770 ± 427.05 kcal, and 38.5 ± 21.35 g (fourth day) vs. 590 ± 321.1 ml, 472 ± 256.81 kcal, and 23.6 ± 12.84 g (first day) in the synbiotic group (p < 0.05). Changes in the placebo group were not statistically significant. On day 1, nitrogen balance (NB) was − 19.84 ± 8.03 in the synbiotic vs. − 10.99 ± 9.12 in the placebo group (p = 0.003). On day 14, NB was − 14.18 ± 13.05 in the synbiotic and − 9.59 ± 7.71 in the placebo group (p = 0.41). Mid-arm circumference (MAC), 24-h urine creatinine, and creatinine-height index were almost steady in the synbiotic group, while they decreased in the placebo group. Conclusion Overall, it can be concluded that enteral nutrition supplemented with synbiotics has no statistically significant effect on energy and protein homeostasis and muscle mass maintenance of critically ill patients on day 14, but it can increase enteral feed volume and energy and protein intake during the first 4 days of ICU admission. Trial registration The trial protocol has been approved in Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials on March 17, 2019. The registration reference is IRCT20190227042857N1.

Abstract
Background The practice of therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is widely used for neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) despite its corresponding feeding strategies are still controversial. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) demonstrated to evaluate the effect of early vs. delayed enteral nutrition on the incidence of feeding intolerance (FI) and other association during TH. Methods This single center, parallel-group, and no-blinded RCT was processed in a level III, and academic neonatal intensive care unit. Infants who were diagnosed with HIE and undertaken TH from September 2020 to August 2021 were enrolled. Participants were randomized to receive enteral nutrition either during TH/rewarming (early enteral nutrition, EEN) or after TH (delayed enteral nutrition, DEN) according to a recommend enteral feeding protocol. All data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software with a p-value< 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Ninety-two infants were enrolled after randomization, but 12 (13.04%) cases including 3 (3.26%) deaths were excluded from eventually analyzed, who did not initiate or discontinue the intervention. 80 cases (42 and 38 in the EEN and DEN group, respectively) who completed the interventions were eventually analyzed. Besides initial time of enteral feeds, two groups had processed the same feeding method. Total 23 (25.0%) cases developed FI, and no difference of morbidity was found between two groups (23.4% vs 26.7%, p = 0.595; Log Rank, p = 0.803). There was no case died or developed late-onset bloodstream and no difference of the incidence of hypoglycemia or weight gain was found (p > 0.05). The percentage of infants who had not reaching the goal of full enteral feeding volume between the two groups was similar (21.43% vs 23.68%, p = 0.809). The average time of parenteral nutrition, reaching full enteral feeds and hospital stay were shorter in the EEN group compared with the DEN group with significant differences (8.81 ± 1.67 vs 10.61 ± 2.06 days, p < 0.001; 9.91 ± 1.88 vs 12.24 ± 2.50 days, p < 0.001; 12.55 ± 4.57 vs 16.47 ± 5.27 days, p = 0.001 respectively). Conclusions Compared with delayed enteral nutrition, introduction of early enteral nutrition according to a recommend feeding strategy for neonatal HIE undergoing TH may be feasible and safe.FI is frequent in this high-risk group of infants which should not be ignored during feeding process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple critical care guidelines support the elimination of routine gastric residual volume monitoring in patients receiving enteral nutrition. However, transitioning nursing practice away from routine gastric residual volume assessments has proved challenging. OBJECTIVE To evaluate outcomes after the elimination of routine gastric residual volume monitoring in a 14-bed adult intensive care unit at a large teaching hospital in the southeastern United States. METHODS Practice change was accomplished through in-service training and implementation of a validated protocol. Data were collected for 30 days before and 30 days after protocol implementation to determine effects on the total volume of enteral nutrition received as well as the rate of adverse events after elimination of routine gastric residual volume assessments (n = 22) as compared with previous standard practice (n = 25). RESULTS When gastric residual volume was not measured, the mean (SD) percentage of enteral nutrition delivery was 81% (12%) of the ordered volume, compared with 60% (18%) in the historic control group (P = .002). Eliminating gastric residual volume monitoring was not associated with an increased rate of adverse events (emesis, aspiration pneumonia) or a change in length of stay. Nursing staff demonstrated a high degree of compliance with this protocol change. CONCLUSION The findings of this study indicate that the elimination of routine gastric residual volume assessment does not increase the rate of adverse events and results in increased nutrition provision. Use of a protocol for practice change as well as mandatory in-service training may effect changes in nursing practice.

Abstract
Background The importance of enteral nutrition (EN) in acute pancreatitis (AP) has been emphasised. Nasogastric (NG) feeding has been the preferred route for EN delivery in most AP patients intolerant to oral intake. However, gastric feeding intolerance (GFI) was frequently reported, especially in patients with more severe diseases. This study aimed to investigate the incidence and risk factors for GFI in moderately-severe to severe AP. Methods This is a single-centre, retrospective study. All the data were extracted from an electronic database from April 2020 to May 2021. Data were prospectively collected during hospitalisation. Patients diagnosed with moderately-severe to severe AP and admitted within seven days from the onset of abdominal pain were assessed for eligibility. Patients who showed signs of intolerance to gastric feeding and required switching to nasojejunal (NJ) feeding were deemed GFI. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to assess potential risk factors of GFI. Results A total of 93 patients were analysed, of whom 24 were deemed GFI (25.8%), and the rest tolerated NG feeding well (n = 69). In patients with GFI, the median time of switching to NJ feeding was five days (interquartile range: 4–7 days) after admission. The multivariable analysis showed that respiratory failure (odds ratio = 3.135, 95% CI: 1.111–8.848, P = 0.031) was an independent risk factor for GFI.The mean daily energy delivery in the following three days after switching to NJ feeding was significantly higher than the first three days after initiation of NG feeding in patients with GFI [920.83 (493.33–1326) vs. 465 (252.25–556.67) kcal, P < 0.001]. Conclusion GFI is common in moderately-severe to severe AP patients with an incidence of 25.8%, and the presence of respiratory failure may increase the risk of GFI.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize knowledge on the gut function in relation to enteral nutrition. RECENT FINDINGS The gut is certainly suffering during critical illness but our understanding of the exact mechanisms involved is limited. Physicians at bedside are lacking tools to identify how well or bad the gut is doing and whether the gut is responding adequately to critical illness. Sensing nutrition as a signal is important for the gut and microbiome. Enteral nutrition has beneficial effects for the gut perfusion and function. However, early full enteral nutrition in patients with shock was associated with an increased number of rare but serious complications. SUMMARY Whenever synthesizing knowledge in physiology and available evidence in critically ill, we suggest that enteral nutrition has beneficial effects but may turn harmful if provided too aggressively. Contraindications to enteral nutrition are listed in recent guidelines. For patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction but without these contraindications, we suggest considering early enteral nutrition as a signal to the gut and to the body rather than an energy and protein provision. With this rationale, we think that low dose of enteral nutrition could and probably should be provided also when the gut does not feel very good. Understanding the feedback from the gut in response to enteral nutrition would be important, however, monitoring tools are currently limited to clinical assessment only.

Abstract
Objective To explore the main variations in gut microbiota compositions, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) concentrations and autoinducer-2 (AI-2) levels in very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants with feeding intolerance (FI). Methods Twenty-seven VLBW infants with gestational ages of ≤30 weeks were divided into the FI group (n=14) and feeding tolerance (FT) group (n=13). The gut microbiota composition and SCFAs concentrations and AI-2 levels in feces were detected at 2 and 4 weeks after birth. Results There was no difference in alpha diversity between the two groups at 2 and 4 weeks after birth (P>0.05). Although the Chao index decreased (P<0.05), there was no difference in the Shannon index from 2 weeks to 4 weeks in either the FI or FT group (P>0.05). Additionally, there was no difference in beta diversity between the FI and FT groups at 2 weeks (P>0.05), but there was a significant difference in beta diversity between the two groups at 4 weeks (P<0.05) and a large difference from 2 weeks to 4 weeks in both the FI and FT groups (P<0.05). Furthermore, the composition of the microbiota at 4 weeks was significantly different from that at 2 weeks in the FI group (P<0.05). The Veillonella abundance was lower at 4 weeks in the FI group (P<0.05), but there were no differences in the compositions of the other main microbes between the two groups (P>0.05). Proteobacteria and Firmicutes were dominant in both the FI and FT groups. The concentrations of propanoic, valeric and hexanoic acids were lower in the FI group at 2 weeks, and the levels of isobutyric and valeric acids were lower at 4 weeks after birth (P<0.05). The areas under the curves (AUCs) of propanoic, butanoic and valeric acids in predicting FI were 0.878, 0.816 and 0.744, respectively. Compared with that in the FT group, the relative bioluminescence of AI-2 was lower in the FI group at 2 weeks (P<0.05), and the AUC was 0.736. Conclusions The main composition of the microbiota was not obviously different in infants with FI. Some SCFAs and AI-2 have moderate value in predicting FI.

Abstract
Bolus and continuous nutrition are commonly used enteral nutrition (EN) administration methodologies. Currently, there is insufficient evidence to establish which is the most effective method for reducing gastrointestinal complications in adult patients. The aim of this review is to evaluate the impact of bolus/intermittent EN compared with continuous EN for the following outcomes: diarrhea, constipation, emesis/vomiting, gastric residual volume, aspiration, and glycemic control in adult patients receiving intragastric prepyloric EN in the hospital setting. Bibliographical research was performed on the following databases: PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. The review included all randomized and nonrandomized controlled trials of patients aged ≥18 years with preserved gastrointestinal function. Meta-analysis was performed by Review Manager V.5.3. Seven studies including 551 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Five of these studies reported that the diarrhea rate was higher in the bolus feeding group (risk ratio [RR] = 2.50; 95% CI, 1.17-5.34; P = 0.02), and another five of these studies indicated that the aspiration rate was higher in the continuous feeding group (RR = 0.55; 95% CI, 0.35-0.87; P = 0.01). There were no significant differences for the other outcomes. In conclusion, intermittent EN appears to reduce the incidence of aspiration in the hospital setting; however, it may increase the risk of diarrhea. For future research, we hypothesize the joint use of continuous nutrition until the patient reaches tolerance and then passing to bolus nutrition, thus reducing the incidence of aspiration and enabling a physiological nutrition intake.

Abstract
(1) Background: Acute muscle inflammation leads to increased sonographic echodensity. We developed a technique to characterize the echodensity of the gastric antrum wall and assess its feasibility in evaluating the severity of acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI); (2) Methods: The B-mode images of the gastric antrum of each enrolled patient were obtained daily by point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). The 50th percentile, 85th percentile, and mean value of the grayscale distribution according to histogram analysis (ED50, ED85, and EDmean, respectively) were used to characterize the gastric antrum echodensity. Consistency and correlation analyses were performed to evaluate the feasibility and reproducibility of gastric antrum echodensity measurement. The association of gastric antrum echodensity with the severity of AGI and its ability to predict feeding intolerance (FI) were analyzed; (3) Results: In total, 206 POCUS images of 43 patients were analyzed. The gastric antrum echodensity measurements had sufficient intra- and inter-investigator reliabilities (intraclass correlation coefficient >0.9 for all parameters). The ED50 showed a significant upward trend as AGI severity increased, as well as ED85 and EDmean (p for trend <0.001, respectively). Patients who experienced FI had a higher ED50 (67.8 vs. 56.1, p = 0.02), ED85 (85.6 vs. 71.2, p = 0.01), and EDmean (70.3 vs. 57.6, p = 0.01) upon enteral feeding initiation; (4) Conclusions: Measurement of gastric antrum echodensity was technically feasible and reproducible in ventilated patients. Increased gastric antrum echodensity was associated with greater severity of AGI. Patients with higher gastric antrum echodensity upon enteral nutrition initiation via a nasogastric tube were more likely to develop FI.

Abstract
The preferential use of the oral/enteral route in critically ill patients over gut rest is uniformly recommended and applied. This article provides practical guidance on enteral nutrition in compliance with recent American and European guidelines. Low-dose enteral nutrition can be safely started within 48 h after admission, even during treatment with small or moderate doses of vasopressor agents. A percutaneous access should be used when enteral nutrition is anticipated for ≥ 4 weeks. Energy delivery should not be calculated to match energy expenditure before day 4–7, and the use of energy-dense formulas can be restricted to cases of inability to tolerate full-volume isocaloric enteral nutrition or to patients who require fluid restriction. Low-dose protein (max 0.8 g/kg/day) can be provided during the early phase of critical illness, while a protein target of > 1.2 g/kg/day could be considered during the rehabilitation phase. The occurrence of refeeding syndrome should be assessed by daily measurement of plasma phosphate, and a phosphate drop of 30% should be managed by reduction of enteral feeding rate and high-dose thiamine. Vomiting and increased gastric residual volume may indicate gastric intolerance, while sudden abdominal pain, distension, gastrointestinal paralysis, or rising abdominal pressure may indicate lower gastrointestinal intolerance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Feeding intolerance (FI) is common in critically ill patients fed with enteral nutrition. Although there is increasing evidence showing the association between FI and mortality, no reliable quantitative assessment was available in clinical practice. In this study, we proposed a FI scoring system based on gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms to assist the implementation of enteral nutrition and assessed its association with 28-day mortality. METHODS This is a post hoc analysis based on data collected in a previous cross-sectional study. All adult patients who were enterally fed were included. Various definitions of FI were compared. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) was used to assess the predictive performance for 28-day mortality. Pearson correlation coefficient and the variance inflation factor were applied to detect collinearity among variables. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors for 28-day mortality. RESULTS Of the 1098 patients included, 200 (18.2%) were nonsurvivors. The incidence of GI symptoms was higher in nonsurvivors on the study day. The multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the proposed FI score was an independent risk factor for 28-day mortality (odds ratio [OR]: 1.37; 95% CI, 1.25-1.51; P < .001). Moreover, the FI score showed better predictive accuracy for 28-day mortality than the other definitions (AUROC: 0.633 [95% CI, 0.591-0.675] for the FI score vs 0.595 (95% CI, 0.557-0.633] for the best-performing FI definition [P = 0.001]). CONCLUSIONS FI score is independently associated with 28-day mortality in critically ill patients with acceptable predictive accuracy.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Gastric tube feeding is a common and valuable intervention for patients in a variety of care settings. While tube feeding can save the lives of patients for whom oral feeding isn't possible, intolerance to tube feeding is a potential complication. This article discusses risk factors for feeding intolerance; the assessment of signs and symptoms of feeding intolerance; the various means of assessing gastric emptying, including the practice of monitoring gastric residual volume (GRV); the controversy surrounding GRV monitoring in assessing feeding tolerance; and the special considerations for monitoring feeding tolerance in acutely and critically ill adults with coronavirus disease 2019. The author, a nurse researcher with extensive experience in the area of enteral feeding, briefly summarizes recommendations and guidelines for enteral feeding published by national and international health care organizations between 2015 and 2020, and offers her perspective on best nursing practices for monitoring food tolerance in adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The correlation between gastric residual volumes (GRV) and markers of gastric emptying (GE) in critically ill patients is unclear. This is especially true for ICU surgical patients as they are underrepresented in previous studies. METHODS We conducted a post-hoc analysis of a multicenter trial that investigated the effectiveness of a promotility drug in increasing enteral nutrition intake. Pharmacokinetic markers of GE [3-O-methylglucose (3-OMG) and acetaminophen] were correlated with GRV measurements. High-GRV was defined as one episode of >400 mL or two consecutive episodes of >250 mL, and delayed GE was defined as <20th percentile of the pharmacokinetic GE marker that had the strongest correlation with GE. RESULTS Out of 77 patients, 8 (10.4%) had high-GRV, and 15 (19.5%) had delayed GE. 3-OMG concentration at 60 mins had the strongest correlation with GRV (Rho: - 0.631), and high-GRV had low sensitivity (46.7%) but high specificity (98.4%) in discriminating delayed GE. The positive (87.5%) and negative (88.4%) predictive values were similar. There was a small sample of surgical patients (n = 14, 18.2%), and they had a significantly higher incidence of high-GRV (29% vs 6%, P: 0.032) and a trend towards delayed GE (36% vs 16%, p: 0.132) when compared to medical patients. CONCLUSION GRV reflects GE, and high-GRV is an acceptable surrogate marker of delayed GE. Based on our preliminary observation, surgical patients may have a higher risk of high-GRV and delayed GE. In summary, GRV should be monitored to determine if complex investigations or therapeutic interventions are warranted. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS To develop a five grade score (0-4 points) for the assessment of gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction in adult critically ill patients. METHODS This prospective multicenter observational study enrolled consecutive adult patients admitted to 11 intensive care units in nine countries. At all sites, daily clinical data with emphasis on GI clinical symptoms were collected and intra-abdominal pressure measured. In five out of 11 sites, the biomarkers citrulline and intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP) were measured additionally. Cox models with time-dependent scores were used to analyze associations with 28- and 90-day mortality. The models were estimated with stratification for study center. RESULTS We included 540 patients (224 with biomarker measurements) with median age of 65 years (range 18-94), the Simplified Acute Physiology Score II score of 38 (interquartile range 26-53) points, and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score of 6 (interquartile range 3-9) points at admission. Median ICU length of stay was 3 (interquartile range 1-6) days and 90-day mortality 18.9%. A new five grade Gastrointestinal Dysfunction Score (GIDS) was developed based on the rationale of the previously developed Acute GI Injury (AGI) grading. Citrulline and I-FABP did not prove their potential for scoring of GI dysfunction in critically ill. GIDS was independently associated with 28- and 90-day mortality when added to SOFA total score (HR 1.40; 95%CI 1.07-1.84 and HR 1.40; 95%CI 1.02-1.79, respectively) or to a model containing all SOFA subscores (HR 1.48; 95%CI 1.13-1.92 and HR 1.47; 95%CI 1.15-1.87, respectively), improving predictive power of SOFA score in all analyses. CONCLUSIONS The newly developed GIDS is additive to SOFA score in prediction of 28- and 90-day mortality. The clinical usefulness of this score should be validated prospectively. TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT02613000, retrospectively registered 24 November 2015.

Abstract
Background Home enteral nutrition (HEN) use continues to increase in children unable to meet nutritional needs through oral intake. Some patients do not tolerate standard polymeric formula (SPF), which may lead to malnutrition. Use of peptide‐based diet (PBD) has demonstrated benefits in adults, however there remains a paucity of data in pediatric population. Methods Retrospective review of medical records of children receiving HEN between October 2015 and October 2019 was conducted. Nutrition, tolerance, and healthcare utilization was tracked through May 2020. Children receiving PBD as initial formula or transitioned to PBD from SPF were included. Our objective was to assess gastrointestinal tolerance and impact on healthcare utilization in children receiving PBD. Results During study period, 30 children (mean age, 9 ± 5.44 years; 20 of 30 [66.7%] male) utilized PBDs. Twenty‐one patients started PBD directly with malnutrition as primary indication. Nine patients transitioned from SPF to PBD, most often due to intolerance of SPF (66%). After transition to PBD, no symptoms were reported in 6 of 9 (66.7%) patients, and symptoms of SPF intolerance resolved in 4 of 9 (44.5%) patients. Healthcare utilization declined significantly after transition to PBD, including mean numbers of emergency room visits (0.78 ± 1.09 to 0.11 ± 0.33; P = .025), provider visits (1.67 ± 1.32 to 0.56 ± 0.73; P = .007), and phone calls (1.22 ± 1.39 to 0.33 ± 0.50; P = .026). Conclusions PBD is well tolerated and can result in significant reduction in healthcare utilization in children intolerant to SPF.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective The present study assessed the differences in nutritional markers (albumin, transferrin, total body fat, and body mass index) and clinical complications (diarrhea, vomiting, and diet interruptions) associated with enteral nutrition. Methods This is an open-label, randomized, two-arm parallel-group controlled clinical trial. Out of 105 patients assessed for eligibility, 35 adult patients were randomly divided into two groups and followed for 28 days. The sample comprised a heterogeneous group of severely ill individuals initially treated in the intensive care units. Neurological conditions (i.e., strokes and brain tumours) were the most common reasons for hospitalization. Patients had one singularity: the clinical need for exclusive enteral nutrition therapy. One group received the diet via gastric tube and the other via a post-pyloric tube. Results The groups presented increases in the calories prescribed and administered, as well as reduced diet discontinuation. Although similar values were observed up to day 21, the post-pyloric group showed increased albumin levels compared to the gastric group on Day 28. Transferrin levels increased over time in both groups. Conclusion There were no differences in the complications recorded between groups, albeit serum albumin significantly increased in the post-pyloric group.
