Brief summary (registry, in English)

The primary aim of this study is to investigate the effects of a plant-based, high energy, high protein tube feed with and without inclusion of fibre on gastrointestinal tolerance in adult patients who require nutritional support via enteral tube feeding over a 28-day period, followed by a 12-month follow-up. Secondary aims are to determine the effects on compliance, acceptability, anthropometry, nutrient intake, and physical function. This is a prospective, longitudinal, 28-day intervention study with a 1-day baseline period and a 1-year follow-up.
