- Authors
Reignier, Jean; Van Zanten, Arthur R. H.; Arabi, Yaseen M.
- Abstract
The authors comment on a study which examined the safety of early enteral nutrition (EEN) in patients with severe cardiogenic or obstructive shock, requiring venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). Topics covered include impact of EEN on duration of hospital stay and mortality, limitations related to the retrospective design of the study and nutrition therapy in intensive care unit (ICU) patients.
