Propofol Use Precludes Prescription of Estimated Nitrogen Requirements

The objective was to determine whether reducing enteral nutrition to accommodate 1% Propofol-derived energy results in suboptimal nitrogen prescription. This was a prospective observational study of 85 consecutive patients requiring mechanical ventilation and receiving 1% Propofol. Enteral nutrition...

Description
Summary:The objective was to determine whether reducing enteral nutrition to accommodate 1% Propofol-derived energy results in suboptimal nitrogen prescription. This was a prospective observational study of 85 consecutive patients requiring mechanical ventilation and receiving 1% Propofol. Enteral nutrition prescription often failed to meet nitrogen requirements (
