Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of location of feeding on glycemic control in critically ill patients. The investigators hypothesize that glycemic control in critically ill patients who receive enteral nutrition through postpyloric location (beyond stomach) will have better glycemic control compared to critically ill patients fed gastrically.
