The objectives of this study were to review the use, safety, and costs of peripheral parenteral nutrition in an Australian tertiary hospital.
Data were assessed retrospectively to determine effectiveness of a novel technique for placing feeding tubes for COVID patients while in the prone position using an electromagnetic placement device and specialty trained clinical nurse specialists.
We performed a review of various aspects of nutrition support, including formula choice and route of administration, as well as duration and timing of nutrition support therapy in gastrointestinal surgery.
The review summarizes the most recent evidence relevant to clinical practice on selected aspects of medical nutrition therapy in adult patients in the intensive care unit and to provide guidance for implementing evidence-based approaches for adequate energy and nutrient supply in the intensive care unit setting.
Report on an umbrella review to summarize the existing evidence on the effect of early enteral nutrition compared with other approaches, including delayed enteral nutrition, parenteral nutrition, and oral feeding on clinical outcomes in hospitalized patients.
This review explores differences in enteral formulations, identifies implications for clinical practice, and reviews evidenced-based clinical guidelines to assist clinicians in enteral formula selection.
Emerging data demonstrate that the use of peptide-based formulas in patients with enteral feeding intolerance may improve clinical outcomes along with a corresponding reduction in healthcare utilization and potentially the cost of care.
Caregivers must understand the nature of and indications for specific formulas to treat diseases, provide complete nutrition to patients, and avoid harm.
The goal was to evaluate and improve the ordering, administration, documentation, and monitoring of enteral nutrition therapies within the inpatient setting in a Veteran’s Health Administration system.
Test of our hypothesis that the use of peripheral parenteral nutrition could be increased in certain patient cohorts referred for parenteral nutrition in our facility.
