NCT ID NCT05906472
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 29 times
Summary
This study looks at whether patients in the ICU who need a breathing tube can keep getting nutrition right up until their tracheostomy surgery. The goal is to see if this approach helps them get more food without increasing the risk of food getting into their lungs or causing lung infections. About 200 adults will be split into two groups: one that stops eating 6 hours before surgery and one that continues until the procedure.
