Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
i. Nutritional status determined by change in body-weight. ii. The severity of GI mucositis as determined by citrulline levels and the Nijmegen Nursing Mucositis Scoring System, NNMSS (APPENDIX B).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
i. The Quality-of-Life using the EORTC QLQ-C30 version 3.0 (APPENDIX C) and the VAS-score (APPENDIX D). ii. Body mass index (BMI) and mid-upper-arm circumference (MUAC). iii. Incidence of infectious complications and bactaeremia. iv. Inflammatory response as determined by the presence of fever, and elevated levels of C-reactive protein and interleukin-8. v. Engraftment and time to engraftment. vi. Percentage of calculated optimal quantity of tube feeding which is actually given to the patient. vii. Liver toxicity scores according to the NCI-CTCAE version 4.0. viii. Length of hospital stay
