Open Access Abstract Introduction To compare outcomes from early post-pyloric to gastric feeding in ventilated critically ill patients in a medical intensive care unit ICU . Methods Prospective randomized study. Ventilated patients were randomly assigned to receive enteral feed via a nasogastric or a post-pyloric tube. Post-pyloric tubes were inserted by the bedside nurse and placement was confirmed radiographically. Results A total of 104 patients were enrolled 54 in the gastric group and 50 in the post-pyloric group. Bedside post-pyloric tube insertion was successful in 80 of patients. Patients who failed post-pyloric insertion were fed via the nasogastric route but were analysed on an intent-to treat basis. A per protocol analysis was also performed. Baseline .
