BACKGROUND: Enteral nutrition is nutrition provided through the gastrointestinal tract, which delivers nutrition distal to the oral cavity. Critically ill patients are at high nutrition risk thus the need for full nutrition assessment At present, NUTRIC score is one of the reliable assessment tools for quantifying risk of developing adverse outcome in critically ill patients, which may be modifiable by aggressive nutrition therapy. OBJECTIVES: We assessed the nutrition risk levels as measured by NUTRIC score among admitted patients who were given enteral nutrition at the Intensive Care Unit of Cebu Doctors' University Hospital from June 2016 to June 2017. METHODOLOGY: This is a one-year single-center cross-sectional retrospective chart review study on admitted ICU patients from June 2016 to June 2017. Categorical profiles were expressed in frequency and percentage while those continuous variables were described in mean and standard deviations. Moreover, incidence rate of nutrition risk levels of patients was computed. In comparing the required and actual feeding amount of patients was compared using the Paired t-test wherein a p-values lesser than 0.05 alpha were considered significant. IBMSPSS ver 21 was used as software. RESULTS: This study has shown that 86.4% of the patients admitted in this institution's ICU were started on early enteral feeding within 24 to 48 hours of ICU admission. From the subjects given EN, only 21 (5.8%) were able to achieve the energy requirement. In those subjects who did not achieve the required energy requirement, there is an associated increased length of stay in the ICU (p-value of 0.045). Based on NUTRIC score, out of 52 patients included in this study, 39 patients (75%) were identified to be at low risk while 13 subjects (25%) were at high risk for a 28-day mortality. CONCLUSION Early initiation of enteral nutrition was being practiced among patients admitted to ICU in our institution. However, majority of patients given enteral feeding were not given the required energy requirement. The ICU patients who were given early nutrition feeding were associated with decreased length of ICU stay.
