Brief Summary

Role of immunonutrition in modulating the lung microbiota of intubated TBJ patients and how this interaction may affect the infections and outcomes. For these reasons, the aims of our study are the evaluation of the impact of immunonutrition on the lung microbiota and the relationship between lung microbiota and infection in TBJ patients in ICU.
