Brief Summary
BACKGROUND: Nutrition plays a significant role in ICU treatment, and may influence mortality and length of stay in ICU. Enteral route (EN) is preferential to parenteral route (PN) in provision of daily nutritional requirements. When enteral route is insufficient, supplemental parenteral nutrition (SPN) is recommended. Optimal timing of SPN in acute phase of illness remains elusive. ICU patients suffer significant lean body mass loss, in majority, in the first 7-10 days of stay. Optimal provision of protein may prevent muscle wasting. Lean body mass is essential for optimal physical functioning after treatment. Although ICU mortality has been reduced lately, the number of patients going to rehabilitation after ICU stay has tripled. Patients after oncological surgery of the gastrointestinal tract may be threatened with impairment of physical functioning after ICU treatment. AIM: To compare the influence of early and late supplemental parenteral nutrition on long-term physical functioning in ICU patients after oncological surgery of the gastrointestinal tract. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective, randomised, multi-centre assessor-blinded study. METHODS \& ANALYSIS: Patients will be randomised into intervention group that would receive SPN on first day, and would be continued until 7th day of stay in ICU. Control group would receive SPN on 7th day of stay in ICU, when it is not then already met via enteral route. Physical Component of SF-36 Scale at 6 month after ICU admission will be assessed.

Study Arms (2)
Early Supplemental Parenteral Nutrition
EXPERIMENTALIntervention group: would receive EN reaching up to 20 % of daily nutritional requirements and early (on first day of stay in ICU) provision (of up to 80%) of protein (2 g/kg/ day or in case of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) 2,5 g/kg/ day) and caloric (15-20 kcal/kg/day) needs in SPN that would be continued until 7th day of stay in ICU for the purpose of the study.
Late Supplemental Parenteral Nutrition
NO INTERVENTIONControl group: would receive EN reaching up to 20 % of daily nutritional requirements and late (of up to 80%) of protein (2 g/kg/ day or in case of CRRT 2,5 g/kg/ day) and caloric (15-20 kcal/kg/day ) in SPN on 7th day of stay in ICU if it is not already met via enteral route.
Interventions
Intervention group: would receive EN reaching up to 20 % of daily nutritional requirements and early (on first day of stay in ICU) provision (of up to 80%) of protein (2 g/kg/ day or in case of CRRT 2,5 g/kg/ day) and caloric (15-20 kcal/kg/day) needs in SPN that would be continued until 7th day of stay in ICU. Central venous catheter placement would not be assessed as a part of intervention due to the fact that it is a part of routine medical activities performed during admission to ICU.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- ICU patients in the acute phase of critical illness after gastrointestinal oncological surgery.
- Admitted to the ICU during the previous 24 hours with a minimum expected ICU stay of ≥5 days

- Written informed consent from the patient or the patient's legal representative
You may not qualify if:
- Contraindication against SPN or inability to receive SPN via central venous access
- Received PN within 7 days before randomisation
- Expected to receive ≥20% of energy via supplemental enteral nutrition (EN) and/or non-nutritional sources (e.g. glucose solution for drug dilution or lipids from propofol) during the first 3 nutritional treatment days
- Inability to initiate EN prior to randomization
- Body mass index (BMI) \<17 kg/m2 or \>35 kg/m2
- Any severe, persistent blood coagulation disorder with uncontrolled bleeding
- Any congenital errors of amino acid metabolism

- Pregnancy or lactation
- Patient unlikely to survive to 6 months due to underlying illness
- Receiving end-of-life-care
- +7 more criteria
