First seen May 02, 2026 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study looks at whether adjusting tube feeding based on total daily volume, rather than a fixed hourly rate, helps critically ill children in the pediatric ICU get the nutrition they need. The trial involves 20 children and aims to see if this approach is practical for a larger future study. It does not test a cure or treatment, but rather a method to improve nutrition delivery.
