This review characterizes the current understanding of the mechanisms of gastroparesis and feeding intolerance in critical illness, diagnostic workup, drug therapies, with interventions to improve the provision of enteral nutrition in hospital settings when gastric dysmotility is present or suspected.
The objective was to describe a single center experience on the use of cisapride in patients with pediatric intestinal failure.
