Prokinetic Use to Facilitate Enteral Feeding

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Yearbook of Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine ((YEARBOOK,volume 1996))

Abstract

Critical illness is characterized by multiple factors which can alter the function and structure of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. These alterations may include changes in gastric blood flow, mucosal injury, disturbance of gut immune function and GI motility. The clinical conditions predisposing patients to these GI problems include, but are not limited to, overwhelming infection, tissue hypoxia, starvation, and use of opiates, benzodiazepines and paralytic agents [1]. Early enteral feeding, facilitated by the use of prokinetic agents, may lessen the impact of these insults on the GI tract.
