Abstract

Patients that need extracorporeal life support are amongst the most critically ill in the intensive care unit (ICU). It is known that undernutrition in critical patients may reduce ventilator-free days, extend the length of stay, increase mortality and long-term complications. However, as extracorporeal oxygenation is a rather new tecnique, there is not enough evidence about nutrition, and that causes fear when these patients are artificially fed. The following review intends to answer doubts concerning nutrition therapy based on scientific evidence and the experience of a cardiovascular institute. Nutrition therapy must be carried out within interdisciplinary work between the nutritionist, doctor and nurse, so that with everyone’s effort then nutritional targets may be accomplished and help to prevent undernutrition.
