How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Oh (+82-2-2072-3538, faun1226@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of Phase angle (°) (time frame: Baseline, 7 days after starting enteral nutrition, 14 days after starting enteral nutrition). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Nov 2021.
