Dietary intake distribution patterns in post-intensive care patients
Post-ICU patients showed an even distribution of energy and protein intake from oral food consumption throughout the day, suggesting a per-meal intake threshold. The introduction of a tailored nutrition protocol resulted in prolonged enteral tube feeding post-ICU, increased energy and protein adequacy, but reduced oral meal consumption.
