Abstract

The term critically ill patients are characterized with the presence of hyper catabolism that cause by physiological and psychosocial stressors that associated with critical illness. Enteral nutrition is the alternative to provide sufficient energy required by critically ill patient as it contains complete balanced nutrients which include macronutrients and micronutrients in form that easy to digest. The aim for this study is to measure the feeding tolerance compared between bolus versus continuous feeding modes. The rate of feeding tolerance was measured by comparing the aspiration rate, and gastrointestinal (GI) complication. A total of 48 respondent was involved in this study. Study respondents who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were selected through convenience sampling technique. A social demographic data and health condition was collected from medical folder. All the data in this study was collected from medical folders that available in ward selected. This study found that there is no association between feeding mode and aspiration rate (/?= 0.563). There is also no association between feeding modes and diarrhea incidence (/?=0.838). The association between mode of feeding and vomiting is not found (p=0.663).
