The Hemodynamic Response to Enteral Nutrition

  • Conference paper
Yearbook of Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine 1999

Part of the book series: Yearbook of Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine ((YEARBOOK,volume 1999))

Abstract

In modern intensive care, enteral nutrition is the route recommended to provide artificial nutrition. The advantages of enteral nutrition are numerous, although not definitely proven [1]. The most important claimed advantages include: Maintenance of the gut mucosal barrier function, with concomitant reduction of endotoxin and bacteria translocation [2]; reduction of nosocomial infection [3]; increased tolerance to carbohydrates; and reduced acute phase response to inflammation or infection [4].
