The critical review aimed to determine the safety and efficacy of continuous enteral feeding in patients hospitalized in the UCI compared with intermittent enteral feeding. We worked under secondary research and evidence-based nursing methodology. From the problem analyzed, the clinical question arose according to the PICOT scheme: What is the effectiveness of continuous enteral nutrition versus intermittent enteral nutrition in ICU patients? For the selection of the keywords, the terminology according to MESH/DECS was used; to increase the search criteria, each of the words was translated into English and Portuguese. Search equations were formed, which were entered into databases such as Epistemonikos, Pubmed and BVS. Of the total of 32 research papers, six were finally selected. Subsequently, they passed the first filter by applying the Gálvez Toro validation guide, where the research titled “Continuous versus intermittent enteral tube feeding for critically ill patients: prospective and randomized study” was selected, where the checklist was used. CASPE, obtaining a level of evidence 1+ and a moderate recommendation grade. In response to the clinical question posed, compared to the intermittent enteral feeding strategy, the continuous feeding strategy showed a significant improvement in meeting nutritional needs. On the other hand, there were no differences between both strategies in terms of mortality or gastrointestinal intolerance.
