Interruption of enteral nutrition in the intensive care unit: a single-center survey

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Based on this single-center retrospective chart review, interruption of EN in the ICU is frequent, reasons for and duration of interruption varied, and airway procedures are associated with a relatively longer duration of interruption. Documentation and orders were frequently missing. These results warrant development of a protocol for EN interruption.
