Enteral Nutrition II: Nasointestinal and Gastrostomy Feeding

420
Enteral nutrition encompasses various methods of delivering nutrition directly to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, bypassing traditional oral intake. It is particularly beneficial for patients who cannot eat by mouth but have a functioning digestive system. Key methods include nasointestinal feeding, gastrostomy, and jejunostomy, each suited to different clinical scenarios based on the patient's needs and condition.

Drug Accumulation During Multiple Dosing: Intermittent IV Infusions

66
Intermittent intravenous (IV) infusion is a method of drug administration where medications are delivered over short infusion periods followed by intervals of no drug delivery. This approach helps to prevent sustained high drug concentrations in the bloodstream, reducing the risk of adverse effects associated with prolonged exposure. Unlike continuous infusion, steady-state concentrations may not be achieved during a single dosing cycle but can be reached through repeated...

Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition

419
Parenteral Nutrition (PN) delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It is commonly used for individuals with severe digestive disorders or conditions that prevent normal nutrient absorption.
PN can be administered through two primary routes:
1. Central Parenteral Nutrition (CPN):
CPN involves delivering a high concentration of nutrients through a large vein. This is typically achieved using a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) or,...

Enteral Nutrition I: Orogastric and Nasogastric Feeding

665
Enteral nutrition delivers nutrients directly to the stomach or small intestine through a tube. This method is appropriate for patients who cannot eat but still have a functioning digestive system. It is also beneficial for individuals with swallowing difficulties, anorexia, malabsorption, or those who have undergone gastrointestinal (GI) surgery.
Orogastric (OG) and nasogastric (NG) feeding are two standard methods used for enteral nutrition. Enteral nutrition is often preferred over...

Acute Kidney Injury V: Interprofessional Care

101
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) requires a collaborative healthcare approach to restore renal function and prevent complications. Essential management strategies involve monitoring fluid and electrolyte balance, adjusting medications, initiating dialysis when necessary, and providing nutritional support.Fluid and Electrolyte ManagementFluid Monitoring: Regularly monitoring body weight, central venous pressure, and urine output helps detect fluid imbalances early. Patient intake and output are...

Chronic Kidney Disease III: Interprofessional Care

170
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) requires collaborative and comprehensive management. CKD progresses through stages and can lead to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) if untreated. Interprofessional collaboration and patient education are crucial, enabling patients to manage their health and improve their quality of life.Diagnostic approach for chronic kidney diseaseThe diagnosis of CKD primarily focuses on the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which assesses kidney function by measuring how well...

    Summary

    Intermittent enteral feeding in intensive care may offer benefits like increased muscle protein synthesis. This study found intermittent feeding was safe and well-tolerated in critically ill patients, with no adverse events observed.

    Area of Science:

    • Critical Care Medicine
    • Nutritional Support
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Nutrition therapy is crucial for malnourished and critically ill patients.
    • Enteral feeding is commonly administered via continuous or cyclic methods.
    • Intermittent feeding presents potential benefits, including enhanced muscle protein synthesis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the theory behind the anabolic effects of intermittent enteral feeding.
    • To describe the implementation and outcomes of intermittent feeding in an intensive care unit (ICU).
    • To evaluate potential complications and adverse effects associated with intermittent enteral feeding.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective follow-up of six critically ill patients receiving intermittent enteral feeding.
    • Evaluation of demographic data and potential complications such as aspiration pneumonia, gastric residual volume, abdominal discomfort, and osmotic diarrhea.

    Main Results:

    • Patients received intermittent feeding for an average of 8 days (total 63 days).
    • No cases of aspiration pneumonia or increased gastric residual volume were observed.
    • Abdominal discomfort and osmotic diarrhea were not reported in any patient.

    Conclusions:

    • Intermittent enteral feeding is a potentially more physiological method than continuous or cyclic feeding.
    • It may support muscle protein synthesis, circadian rhythm, and autophagy.
    • Implementation in the ICU was feasible without adverse effects, though it requires more nursing time.
