The purpose of this prospective study seeks to assess ability to achieve enteral feeding
goals with standard polymeric enteral formula in a stable, pediatric tube-fed population.
goals with standard polymeric enteral formula in a stable, pediatric tube-fed population.
In this prospective study, a population of stable, tube-fed children will consume a standard
polymetric tube feeding formula to assess ability to achieve enteral feeding goals and
tolerance outcomes.
