Enteral Nutrition vs. Standard Care for Stem Cell Transplant Patients
This study is looking at two ways to provide nutrition to patients after a stem cell transplant: enteral nutrition (EN), which is given through a tube into the stomach, and standard care parenteral nutrition (PN), which can be given by mouth or through a vein. The main goal is to see if enteral nutrition is safe and practical for patients. Researchers will also compare how these two nutrition methods affect your overall health, quality of life, and survival. You can join if you are between 2 and 25 years old, or if you are 18 or older and planning to have a stem cell transplant. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
