Impact of Early Enteral vs. Parenteral Nutrition on Mortality in Patients Requiring Mechanical Ventilation and Catecholamines

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Shock
Acute Respiratory Failure
Registration Number
NCT01802099
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Departemental Vendee
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the hypothesis that, as compared to early intravenous feeding, early nutrition via the enteral route is associated with reduced Day 28-mortality in critically ill patients treated with mechanical ventilation and vasoactive drug.
