The Augmented Versus Routine Approach to Giving Energy Trial: A Randomised Controlled Trial
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating TARGET protocol EN 1.5 kcal/mL and TARGET protocol EN 1.0 kcal/mL for Critical Illness. Completed, enrolled 4,000 participants across 46 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
Nutrition therapy is an essential standard of care for all critically ill patients who are mechanically ventilated and remain in the intensive care unit for more than a few days. The investigators plan to conduct a 4,000 patient, double-blind, randomised controlled trial to determine if augmentation of calorie delivery using energy dense enteral nutrition in mechanically ventilated patients improves 90 day survival when compared to routine care.
