NCT03098537

Brief Summary

Enteral nutrition can provides prophylaxis against stress ulcer bleeding in critically ill patients and there may be no need to use acid suppressing drugs for stress ulcer bleeding prophylaxis in these patients. Half of the patients on enteral nutrition will not receive any acid suppressing drugs while other half receives it. They will be followed for gastrointestinal bleeding.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • GI bleeding

    Overt GI bleeding (presence of coffee ground emesis hematemesis, melena or hematochezia. Significant GI bleeding, defined by 3-point decrease in hematocrit within 24 hours accompanied by overt GI bleeding or by an unexplained 6-point decrease in hematocrit during any 48 hour period.

    Subjects will be followed from date of randomization until discharge from the ICU or cessation of enteral nutrition up to four weeks

Study Arms (2)

Enteral nutrion only

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Other: enteral nutrition only

Enteral nutrion + proton pump inhibitor

OTHER
Drug: enteral nutrition + proton pump inhibitor

Interventions

Critically ill patients receiving any form of enteral nutrition will be included into the study. The patients will be randomized either enteral nutrition only group or enteral nutrition and proton pump inhibitors group. This group will receive enteral nutrition and proton pump inhibitor

Enteral nutrion + proton pump inhibitor

Critically ill patients receiving any form of enteral nutrition will be included into the study. The patients will be randomized either enteral nutrition only group or enteral nutrition and proton pump inhibitors group. This group will receive only enteral nutrition.

Enteral nutrion only
