  1. Nutrition NUR 102 Lab Module I

  2. Enteral Nutrition • Definition—administration of nutrients directly into the GI tract • Beneficial when oral feedings are not possible, but the stomach or intestines are able to digest nutrients • Preferred over parenteral nutrition

  3. Evidence-Based Practice • Indications • Impaired swallowing or gag reflex usually related to a neurological process • Nutritional deficit due to decreased food ingestion • Inability to eat related to surgery, injury, or disease

  4. Continued… • Complications • Displacement of tube • Electrolyte imbalance • Hyperglycemia • Constipation • Diarrhea • Clogging of the tube • Vomiting • Pulmonary aspiration

  5. Enteral Feeding • Types • Nasogastric—a small tube that is passed through the nares into the stomach • Nasointestinal—tungsten-weighted tube inserted through the nares to allow peristalsis to move the tube through the pyloric sphincter into the duodenum or jejunum • Gastrostomy—surgically placed feeding tube inserted into the stomach in the LUQ of the abdomen

  6. Continued…

  8. Continued…

  9. Equipment Needed • NG tube • Catheter tip syringe, 60cc • Tape or tube fixation device • Cup of water or ice chips for the patient • Clean gloves

  10. Continued…

  11. Insertion of a Nasogastric or Nasointestinal Tube • Refer to Skill 30-1, pg 1014

  12. Verifying Tube Placement • X-ray after initial insertion • pH of aspirate • Air bolus auscultation • Aspiration of gastric contents or feeding

  13. NG Tube Irrigation • Refer to Skill 30-3, pg 1025

  14. Intermittent or Bolus Continuous drip Types of NG Feedings

  15. Equipment for Feeding • Clean gloves • 60cc syringe or feeding bag • Formula

  16. Feeding Administration • Refer to Skill 30-4, pg 1028

  17. Evaluation of Feeding • Measure residual per policy—notify MD if >100cc • Monitor blood sugar levels per policy • Intake and output every 8 hours • Monitor lab values—albumin, prealbumin, protein, transferrin

  18. Continued… • Daily weights • Assess respiratory status • Assess level of comfort • Assess abdomen—bowel sounds

  19. Gastrostomy Feedings • Refer to Skill 30-5, pg 1036
