Enteral vs. parenteral nutrition for the critically ill patient: a combined support should be preferred

Abstract: Early enteral nutrition is recommended for critically ill patients. Supplemental parenteral nutrition combined with enteral nutrition can be considered to cover the energy and protein targets when enteral nutrition alone fails to achieve the caloric goal. Whether such a combined nutritional support provides additional benefit on the overall outcome has to be proven in further studies on clinical outcome, including physical and cognitive functioning, quality of life, cost-effectiveness, and cost-utility.

“…Isso porque podem ocorrer diversas condições as quais interferem na oferta nutricional planejada, causando sua suspensão temporária e/ou permanente e favorecendo o declínio do estado nutricional 8 . Dentre essas condições estão a disfunção gastrointestinal (vômito, diarreia, distensão abdominal, resíduo gástrico aumentado), o jejum para exames e procedimentos, a remoção de sonda e a instabilidade clínica do paciente [9][10][11] . Esses fatores contribuem para que sujeitos em terapia intensiva estejam em risco de receber menor volume e aporte energético-proteico do que o prescrito 12 .…”

“…EN is, however, frequently char acterized by a low caloric intake predomi nantly in the early phase of underlying disease [12,25]. In order to improve en ergy delivery, an early supplemental use of PN is proposed [16]. The advantage of the one nutrition type is thereby regarded as the disadvantage of the other, as both have inherent risks of under or overfeed ing.…”

“…12 However, if critically ill patients cannot tolerate sufficient enteral feedings, there is data to support a mixed nutritional plan involving both enteral and parenteral supplementation. 13 For postsurgical patients, some class C evidence exists to justify parenteral supplementation if 60% of estimated nutritional needs cannot be administered enterally after 3 days. 14 Patients with enteroatmospheric fistula, an entity that is often noted after trauma or abdominal catastrophe, have complex nutritional requirements exacerbated by persistent loss of fluid, electrolytes, and protein through both the fistula and the frequently associated open abdominal wound.…”
