Summary

This study looked at whether giving nutrition through a tube into the stomach (enteral) or through a vein (parenteral) early on affects survival in very sick patients who need a breathing machine and heart-support medications. Over 2,400 adults in intensive care units were randomly assigned to one of the two feeding methods. The main goal was to see which approach led to fewer deaths by day 28.
