    AbstractPromoting patient safety in the enterally fed critically ill patient is dependent on nursing surveillance and recognition of potential areas of patient harm and medical errors. Identifying areas for potential human error, administrative and organizational conditions that are conducive to error, and the patient's own tolerance to EN need to be recognized by the critical care nurse if the risk for EN complications is to be minimized.Copyright 2010 Elsevier Inc.
