The benefits of short-term naso-gastric feeding in patients with advanced cirrhosis remain uncertain. This was a randomised study comparing naso-gastric feeding and oral feeding in Asian patients with cirrhosis who were admitted to hospital for decompensation.


Clinical Trial Description

Consecutive patients with decompensated cirrhosis who fitted the inclusion criteria, will be randomised to either naso-gastric or oral feeding. Total feeding will be for 2 weeks only. Following intervention specific nutritional and liver-related parameters will be measured during the 2 weeks and up to 6 weeks later. Comparison between both groups will then be made. ;
