Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Glutamine supplementation has beneficial effects on morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients, possibly in part through an attenuation of the proinflammatory cytokine response and a Immune function. In this trial intensive care unit patients with enteral feeding will receive either enteral glutamine or maltodextrin as placebo for 28 days.
