Study Summary

Specific Aims: Aim 1: Evaluate the feasibility of intermittent feeding in intensive care unit patients who are mechanically ventilated. Aim 2: Evaluate the safety and patient tolerance of intermittent feeding in intensive care unit patients who are mechanically ventilated. Aim 3: Determine efficacy of intermittent feeding in provision of required nutrition in mechanically ventilated intensive care unit patients. Aim 4: Determine association of intermittent enteral feeding with glycemic control in mechanically ventilated intensive care unit patients.

Primary Outcome
