Each child will receive for a period of seven days the paediatric formula, a nutritionally complete standard enteral tube feed.

The dietitian will determine the feeding regimen on an individual basis and the enteral formula will be provided via a feeding tube. A baseline questionnaire will be completed by the dietitian to ensure eligibility of study, current stool patterns or symptoms, current oral intake and weight at the start of the study.
