Enhanced protein-energy provision via the enteral route in critically ill patients (PEP uP protocol): a review of evidence

Nutrition support is an integral part of care among critically ill patients. However, critically ill patients are commonly underfed, leading to consequences such as increased length of hospital and intensive care unit stay, time on mechanical ventilation, infectious complications, and mortality. Nev...
