“…The function of the gastrointestinal tract, and whether the general condition of the affected patient is stable or reversible hugely determines the duration and approach of the enteral feeding process. 7,8 Many indications have been proposed to conduct enteral feeding in the pediatric population, and these indications do not remarkably vary from the pre-specified indications in conditions requiring nutritional support. In general, the main indication of the modality is for children that usually suffer from severe weight deficit, weight faltering, and growth retardation.…”

Enteral feeding is more favorable than parenteral one because it can significantly intervene against the colonization of bacteria and preserve gut functions. However, this necessitates the presence of a good-functioning gastrointestinal tract. Young infants, critically ill children, and patients with neurological disabilities are the most probable candidates to perform enteral feeding. In the present literature review, we have discussed the indications and long-term results of enteral feeding in pediatric settings. Our results show that modality is a safe and efficacious modality in these settings with favorable outcomes and fewer adverse events and complications. Many indications were reported for the modality, and in general, children that usually suffer from severe weight deficit, weight faltering, and growth retardation are indicated to receive enteral nutrition. Some contraindications were also reported in the literature, and in general, conditions affecting the function and health status gastrointestinal tract should recommend against conducting approaches of enteral feeding. Different complications were reported, including mechanical, metabolic, infectious, gastrointestinal, and drug-related complications that might lead to worsened prognosis and can significantly impact the long-term outcomes of these patients. Therefore, paying adequate attention should be considered in these cases to prevent the development of these complications, and provide all the necessary procedures to potentially manage the expected adverse events.

“…After age 1, feeding advancement is based on stool pattern/stoma output, anatomy of the intestine, GERD, and vomiting. 58 Introduction of solids is largely based on clinical experience and, typically, starts with infant cereals, followed by vegetable purees, trying new foods every 3-5 days to allow for assessment of tolerance (ie, change in stool above baseline or vomiting). Although there is no clear evidence that simple carbohydrates should be avoided, these are restricted from the diet to decrease the risk of osmotic diarrhea.…”

Enteral Nutrition in Pediatric Short‐Bowel Syndrome

et al. 2020

Pediatric intestinal failure (IF) is the critical reduction of intestinal mass or function below the amount necessary for normal growth in children. Short‐bowel syndrome (SBS) is the most common cause of IF in infants and children and is caused by intestinal resection. Enteral autonomy and freedom from parenteral nutrition is the mainstay of nutrition management in SBS. The goal is to achieve intestinal adaptation while maintaining proper growth and development. Treatment is variable, and there remains a paucity of evidence to draw well‐informed conclusions for the care of individuals in this complex population. Physiological principles of enteral nutrition and practical recommendations for advancing the diet of patients with pediatric SBS are presented. Emerging trends in nutrition management, such as the growing interest in blending diets and the impact on SBS, are reviewed. Finally, the influence of the microbiome on enteral tolerance and small bowel bacterial overgrowth are considered.

“…The current age, life expectancy, acute or chronic disease, adverse effect of treatment, or temporary deterioration due to disease should be determined. The method and duration of EN should be decided in accordance with whether the patient's condition is stable or reversible, and with the function of the gastrointestinal tract [ 20 21 ].…”

Enteral Nutrition in Pediatric Patients

Pediatric patients require specialized attention and have diverse demands for proper growth and development, and thus need a different approach and interest in nutritional assessment and supply. Enteral nutrition is the most basic and important method of nutritional intervention, and its indications should be identified. Also, the sites, modes, types, and timing of nutritional intervention according to the patient's condition should be determined. In addition, various complications associated with enteral nutrition supply should be identified, and prevention and treatment are required. This approach to enteral nutrition and proper administration can help in the proper growth and recovery of pediatric patients with nutritional imbalances or nutritional needs.
