Should I Start With A Postpyloric Enteral Nutrition Modality? Nutr Clin Pract. 2020 Dec 16;: Authors: Kuwajima V, Bechtold ML Abstract Nutrition therapy is a key element in the management of malnourished and critically ill patients. Although many aspects of enteral nutrition (EN) have been well defined by research, with clear recommendations by 3 major society guidelines, EN delivery method remains a topic for debate. The goal of this manuscript is to concisely review gastric vs postpyloric enteral feeding in critically ill adult patients and provide a set of recommendations to individualize EN delivery method based on patient characteristics and specific needs.
