Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Enterally Fed Children with Severe Central Nervous System Impairment.

Unlabelled: Children with severe central nervous system (CNS) impairment are at risk of developing various degrees of nutritional deficit that require long-term nutritional intervention. Interventions are most often implemented through enteral nutrition (EN) using commercially manufactured feeds administered via gastro/jejunostomy or nasogastric or nasojejunal tubes. The modality of feeding-continuous feeding or bolus feeding-is dependent on the function of the gastrointestinal tract, particularly the efficiency of gastric emptying.
