Summary

This completed study looked at how many hospitalized patients receive artificial nutrition (tube feeding or IV nutrition). Out of 578 patients, about 1 in 10 (9.7%) were getting this kind of support. The researchers checked whether the type and amount of nutrition matched each patient's medical needs. The goal was to understand current practices and help hospitals plan better for costs and supplies.
