2023 PART A: CRITICAL CARE PROGRAMME INTENSIVE CARE NUTRITION SUPPORT ALGORITHM (ADULTS): Process 1 Patient admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Assess need for Nutrition Support in all patients daily Screen all patients - see Note 1 Does patient require Nutrition Support? See Note 1 Refer to dietitian for full nutritional Yes assessment - see Note 2 Follow resultant patient-specific nutritional care plan Is enteral nutrition (EN) possible? o Is gut accessible and functioning AND o Is gut capable of absorbing enough nutrition AND o Is the patient haemodynamically stable? EN is recommended over PN and should be commenced if No Consider total or supplemental parenteral nutrition indicated within 24-48hr once stable Consider total PN +/- trickle EN or supplemental PN – Yes See Process 2 Can gastric feeding commence? Yes o Place wide bore feeding tube or use existing gastric drainage No tube - see Note 3 o Confirm tube position prior to feeding, daily or more often, if any signs of tube dislodgement - see Note 3 Is post-pyloric o Commence standard enteral feeding (see local guidelines) at, feeding e.g. 10-20ml/hour - See Note 4 possible? o Aspirate NG after 4 hours for Gastric Residual Volume (GRV) Yes 4 CCP Intensive Care Nutrition Support Algorithm Reference Number: Version No: 2 Approval Date: Revision Date: 2023
