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
