Abstract
Underfeeding is prevalent in intensive care unit (ICU) patients receiving enteral nutrition (EN). This study aimed to investigate whether ICU patients were fed adequately on the third day of EN. One hundred ten patients who were hospitalized in the 3 mixed ICUs were evaluated for nutrition adequacy. Patient nutritional status was monitored by a nutrition support team. Nutrition provision was found to be adequate in 95.5% (n = 105) and inadequate in 4.5% (n = 5) of patients. A multidisciplinary approach should be employed to ensure that patients receive maximum benefit from EN.

Topics in Clinical Nutrition (TICN) is a peer-reviewed, quarterly journal designed as a resource for the continuing education and clinical practice of dietitians and nutritionists. Each issue addresses topics of interest primarily to dietitians and nutritionists, students and interns in professional training programs and other health care personnel involved in the nutritional care of patients. Articles include translational research reports (work that applies new knowledge to practical effect), practice projects, evidence-based literature reviews, case studies and book reviews, and articles that highlight education theory and applied research which share the tools and techniques of nutrition and dietetics education.
