Morello M et al. – Nursing home residents (NHRs) receiving enteral nutrition (EN) were mainly afflicted with neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular diseases, functional impairments, and a high incidence of pressure sores. The mortality rate was low compared with others reported in literature. The low EN use among NHRs in this study may suggest a limited use in advanced dementia and at end–stage of life.
