Enteral Feeding Composition and Acute Respiratory Failure

March 21, 2016 updated by: Zahra Vahdat Shariatpanahi

Effect of Enteral Feeding's Macronutrient Composition on Inflammatory Mediators, Oxidative Stress and Outcomes in Intensive Care Unit Patients With Acute Respiratory Failure

This study aimed to investigate the effect of enteral feeding's macronutrient composition on inflammatory mediators, oxidative stress and outcomes in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients with acute respiratory failure. In this double-blind randomized control trial, 42 patients of both sexes and diagnosed with acute respiratory failure in ICU that receive enteral feeding, will be randomly assigned to three groups of 14 each. First Intervention group; high-protein low-carbohydrate diet with high olive oil, the second intervention group; high-protein low-carbohydrate diet with high sunflower oil and control; high-protein kitchen formula. Intravenous levels of uric acid, high sensitive C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP), Interleukin 6 (IL-6) and Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) measured at days 0 and 10. As well as, organ failure, duration of ventilation, length of ICU stay and mortality rates will be evaluated.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: high olive oli
A high fat (45%) low carbohydrate (35%) enteral feeding will be administered to acute respiratory failure patients. The percentage of olive oil will be half of total fat.
EXPERIMENTAL: high sunflower oil
A high fat (45%) low carbohydrate (35%) enteral feeding will be administered to acute respiratory failure patients. The total fat will be sunflower oil.
NO_INTERVENTION: kitchen formula
A high protein kitchen diet for tube feeding will be administered to acute respiratory failure patients.
