Original program date: Sep 03, 2018
Expiration date: Mar 17, 2022

Program Description:
• Benefits of implementing an EN algorithm in the PICU
• Algorithms for initiating and advancing EN feeding
? US example
? Suggested algorithm for adaptation in Asia Pacific and the Middle East
• Case studies to illustrate implementation of nutritional therapy in the PICU
? Severe malnutrition (risk of refeeding syndrome)
? Sepsis/respiratory failure
? Oncology
• Test your knowledge 

Program Objectives:
• To understand the benefits of using an enteral nutrition (EN) algorithm
• To understand the elements of an effective EN algorithm
• To be able to follow an EN algorithm, with adaptations to local practice and available resources, where required
• To understand the implementation of nutrition therapy in the PICU in selected patient types based on case studies
