Critical Care
Your ICU is in a constant race against the clock with the entire healthcare team working towards positive patient outcomes. The sicker the patient, the more you risk by delaying feeding. An unused GI tract is associated with compromised gut integrity, which can prolong the stress response and lead to increased disease severity.1
Nutrition can have a powerful effect on outcomes. When patients are at nutrition risk, their 30-day readmission rate is 50% higher.2 By giving patients specialized nutrition, you’ll protect the integrity of the GI tract3, meaning fewer complications leading to decreased length of stay and avoidable readmissions.4-7
