Energy compensation in enterally fed children

Limited exposure to solid food in early childhood may affect the development of appetite regulation. We used formal satiation studies to assess energy compensation in children who have been artificially fed. Subjects were 11 children, median age 4.5 years (range 1–10) who were formerly (n = 4) or cu...

We used formal satiation studies to assess energy compensation in children who have been artificially fed. Subjects were 11 children, median age 4.5 years (range 1–10) who were formerly (n = 4) or currently (n = 5) mainly tube fed or supplement fed (n = 2), with a range of surgical or neurodevelopmental problems.

A compensation index (COMPX) score was derived as follows: COMPX (%) = [(Meallep � Mealhep)/(Preloadhep � Preloadlep)] � 100. The median (range) COMPX of the participants was 70% (�73% to 178%).
