Study Arms (2)

Pre-intervention

NO INTERVENTION

enteral nutrition according routine practice

Post-intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention in this arm is the application of a standard enteral nutrition protocol

Other: A standard enteral nutrition protocol

Interventions

Patients in the experimental arm, the practice of enteral nutrition will based on a standard protocol. The core content of this protocol includes five step:1. Whether the participants need nutrition therapy? 2. The choice of nutrition way? 3. Nasogastric tube or nasointestinal tube? 4. The choice of enteral nutrition type? 5. The target calorie and protein of the participants? And how to achieve these target?(In this study, the practice of the above protocol is the only intervention).
