Stated reasons for withholding enteral nutrition during therapeutic hypothermia.Legend:A: Unstable hemodynamic condition of the patientB: Increased risk of NEC (Necrotising Enterocolitis)C: No recommendation for enteral feeding during therapeutic hypothermiaD: Lack of safety data for enteral feeding during therapeutic hypothermiaE: Use of intravenous sedation, mechanical ventilationF: Weak or absent intestinal peristalsisG: Some staff members have significant concerns regarding enteral feeding during hypothermia and are difficult to convinceH: We provide trophic feeding during hypothermia if toleratedI: Increased risk of sepsis
