Simple tube removal could help ICU patients eat sooner

NCT ID NCT05795569

Summary

This study tested whether removing feeding tubes immediately after patients in intensive care have their breathing tubes removed helps them start eating by mouth sooner. Researchers compared this approach to the usual practice of keeping feeding tubes in longer. The goal was to see if early removal reduces swallowing problems and helps patients resume normal eating faster.
