About this listen

 In this episode, we're joined by registered dietitian and Certified Nutrition Support Clinician, Leslie Murray, to clear up some of the biggest misconceptions around tube feeding. Leslie shares evidence-based insights on early enteral nutrition, gastric residuals, and gastrointestinal (GI) intolerance in the tube-fed patient. We also dive into the role of peptide-based formulas and why improved tolerance means patients can benefit from staying on them long term.

In the episode, we discuss:

  • The benefits of early enteral nutrition
  • Non-formula factors that may contribute to GI intolerance
  • When to consider a formula switch for your patient
  • What peptide-based formulas are and when to use them
  • Misconceptions around the costs and insurance coverage for specialized formulas
