Abstrakt:	Aims and objectives: To investigate the barriers in administering enteral feeding to critically ill patients from the nursing perspective. Our objectives are to provide tailored interventions for addressing identified barriers and propose an optimal enteral nutrition (EN) practice in intensive care unit (ICU). Background: Despite the availability of numerous verified clinical practice guidelines focusing on enteral feeding of critically ill patients, a wide gap remains between the guideline recommendations and actual nutrition performances. Underfeeding is also a global problem. Therefore, to further understand the reasons of the systemic iatrogenic underfeeding in ICUs, several potential issues are investigated. Design: This research is a cross‐sectional descriptive study. Methods: A total of 808 nurses were recruited from 10 comprehensive hospitals from different districts in China. The nursing staff demographic, the unit's EN management information and the Chinese version of barriers to enteral feeding critically ill patients questionnaire were the parameters used to collect data via WeChat app. Moreover, the collected data were analysed by descriptive and correlative statistical analysis methods. Results: Results obtained by multiple linear regression showed that frequency of EN‐related training, full‐time ICU nutritionist, hospital level, specific protocols for enteral feeding and position were significantly influencing the enteral feeding of ICU patients. Conclusions: Enteral feeding barriers of ICU patients are at a moderate level and are influenced by multiple aspects. Hence, hospital departments should strengthen standardisation and systematic EN training, provide ICU full‐time nutritionists and distribute medical resources and personnel rationally. Moreover, construction of a localised feeding process and exerting subjective initiative of clinical nurses from an evidence‐based guideline are important. Multifaceted tailored interventions should be implemented to address these barriers. Relevance to clinical practice: The findings of this study can be used to inform future intervention and guidelines aimed at addressing these barriers systematically and improving adherence to critical care nutrition guidelines for the provision of enteral nutrition.
