Abstract

Although ICU HCPs show interest and cautious acceptance of probiotics in enteral feeding, knowledge gaps, attitudinal variability, and practice inconsistencies persist across disciplines. These findings highlight the critical need for targeted, multidisciplinary educational interventions and the development of standardized, evidence-based institutional protocols to optimize probiotic use and improve patient outcomes.
