Enteral Nutrition Therapy

ICS is your specialist in Enteral Nutrition therapy. We have a complete nutritional support team, including clinical pharmacists, specialized nutritional nurses, and dietitians to provide each patient with an individual Enteral Formulas based on disease process, treatment requirements, and ongoing patient response. 

Some conditions may impair the ingestion of an adequate amount of food to be eaten. Enteral Nutrition or “tube feeding” is one method of providing the daily nutritional requirements via a tube into the stomach or small bowel.

​

Enteral Nutrition can be administered using a syringe bolus, gravity feedings, or via a feeding pump. There are different tubes that can be used for enteral nutrition. The gastrostomy tube is placed into the stomach and the jejunostomy tube is placed into the bowel.
