Challenges in evaluating associations among vasopressors, enteral nutrition, and nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia

Abstract Purpose Acute mesenteric ischemia is a potentially life-threatening condition resulting from thromboembolic occlusion or nonocclusive mechanisms such as vasospasm and excessive vasoconstriction. Nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) is of particular concern in critical...
