There was a significant difference in discharge diet between those patients who were intubated and those who were not (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.007). Thirty percent of patients were discharged on a different diet than their baseline with patients on a nonregular diet significantly more likely to discharge to a facility (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.043).
