Summary
Enteral alimentation is the preferred modality of support in critical patients who have acceptable digestive function and are unable to eat orally, but the advantages of continuous versus intermittent administration are surrounded by controversy. This prospective, randomised study was designed to compare two enteral feeding methods with respect to changes in levels of leptin and ghrelin in ICU.
