Development and validation of an enteral feeding interruption management scale for <scp>ICU</scp> medical staff: A knowledge‐, attitude‐ and practice‐based approach

The EFI Management KAP Scale addresses a critical gap in the standardized evaluation of critical care nurses' knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding enteral feeding interruptions. By providing a validated tool, this scale enables the identification of specific barriers and facilitators to optimal enteral nutrition delivery in critically ill patients. Its application can guide targeted educational interventions, inform policy adjustments and enhance multidisciplinary collaboration in the ICU. Ultimately, this scale supports improved enteral nutrition management, reducing complications associated with feeding interruptions and contributing to better patient outcomes in critical care settings.
