Gastrointestinal dysfunction in the critically ill: a systematic scoping review and research agenda proposed by the Section of Metabolism, Endocrinology and Nutrition of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
Current evidence on gastrointestinal dysfunction in critically ill patients is limited, partly due to inconsistent definitions and monitoring tools. This review proposes a research agenda focused on priority areas like diarrhoea and feeding intolerance, highlighting the need for consensus on key definitions and standardized outcomes to improve future research.

Scientists found that when very sick people are in the hospital, their tummies can have problems. They want to agree on what these "tummy problems" really mean so they can study them better and help people feel well again.

Explicación de la calificación
This comprehensive review provides valuable insights into GI dysfunction in critically ill patients. It systematically identifies knowledge gaps, develops future research proposals, and highlights consensus-needed areas. While the review emphasizes feasibility over high-cost studies, the extensive involvement of field experts and the overall methodological rigor make it a valuable contribution. However, limitations such as the English-language focus and the specific clinical viewpoint should be noted, warranting a score of 4.
