Abstract

Major technical advances in enteral nutrition include the use of erythromycin or magnetic guidance for the placement of the feeding tube into the duodenum, the development of new enteral tubes, and bedside methods to control the tube position. Percutaneous endoscopic jejunostomy is becoming a safe procedure with a high success rate. Specialized diets offer little or no clinical advantages when compared with standard polymeric diets.
