U.S., Oct. 24 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07892521) titled 'Pulmonary-Specific Enteral Nutrition in Mechanically Ventilated Patients With Pneumonia' on Oct. 18.
Brief Summary: Pneumonia is a major cause of critical illness and respiratory failure, particularly among patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. These patients frequently experience systemic inflammation and metabolic disturbances, which can be assessed using the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and blood lactate levels. Pulmonary-specific enteral nutrition, characterized by a lower carbohydrate and higher fat composition, may help improve respiratory metabolism and modulate inflammatory responses.
