1. 常見管灌餵食之問題與對策 萬芳醫院 金美雲

2. Complications of enteral nutrition • Access problems Pressure necrosis/ulceration/stenosis Tube displacement/migration Tube obstruction Leakage from ostomy /stoma site

3. Complications of enteral nutrition • Administration problems Regurgitation Aspiration Microbial contamination

4. Complications of enteral nutrition • Gastrointestinal complications Nausea/vomiting Diarrhea Distention/bloating/cramping Osmotic Delayed gastric emptying Secretory Constipation Drugs/medications High gastric residuals Treatment/therapies Hypoalbuminemia Maldigestion/malabsorption Formula choice/rate

5. Complications of enteral nutrition • Metabolic complications Refeeding syndrome Drug-nutrient interactions Glucose intolerance/hyperglycemia/hypoglycemia Hydration status-dehydration/overhydration Hyponatremia Hyperkalemia/hypokalemia Hyperphosphatemia/hypophosphatemia Micronutrient deficiencies

6. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Aspiration pneumonia Possible causes- compromised gastroesophageal sphincter, delayed gastric emptying, gastric obstruction Preventive/corrective measures- nasoenteric, gastrostomy, or jejunostomy feeding in high-risk clients small-diameter transnasal tube elevate head of bed during and 30 minutes after feeding continuous drip method of delivery check gastric residual ＊Stable patients, especially those on long-term feeding, do not need residuals checked regularly.

7. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Clogged feeding tube Possible causes- formula too thick for tube medications Preventive/corrective measures- select appropriate tube size, dilute formula with water, flush tubing with water before and after giving formula use oral, liquid, or injectable drugs whenever possible; dilute thick or sticky liquid drugs with water before administering; crush tablets to a fine powder and mix with water; flush tubing with water before and after drugs are given; give drugs individually; do not mix drugs with formula

8. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Dehydration and electrolyte imbalance Possible causes- excessive diarrhea inadequate fluid intake carbohydrate intolerance excessive protein intake Preventive/corrective measures- provide additional fluid use continuous drip administration of formula; monitior blood glucose; consider administering insulin; change amount or type of carbohydrate monitor blood electrolyte levels; reduce protein intake

9. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Diarrhea, cramps, distention Possible causes- bacterial contamination; lactose intolerance; hypertonic formula; rapid formula administration; malnutrition/low serum albumin; drug therapy ＊hyperosomolar medications- magnesium-containing antacids, sorbital-containing elixirs, electrolyte replacement supplements

10. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Diarrhea, cramps, distention Preventive/corrective measures- use fresh formula every 24 hours; store opened or mixed formula in a refrigerator; rinse feeding bag and tubing before adding fresh formula; change feeding bag every 24 hours; prepare formula with clean hands using clean equpment in a clean environment. use lactose-free formula in lactose-intolerant and high-risk clients use a small volume of formula and increase volume gradually; dilute formula; use isotonic formula. slow administration rate or use continuous drip feedings use a small volume of dilute formula and increase volume and concentration gradually. use antidiarrheal agents; change drug, drug form, or dosage; if possible. soy polysaccharide, pectin, other fibers, bulking agents

11. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Constipation Possible causes- low-fiber formula lack of exercise drug therapy Preventive/corrective measures- provide additional fluids; use high-fiber formula encourage walking and other activities change drug therapy if possible; give laxatives or enemas if indicated ＊Diarrhea can coexist with constipation, usually when a patient is impacted.

12. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Hyperglycemia Possible causes- primary medical condition diabetes, hypermetabolism, drug therapy Preventive/corrective measures- treat disorder check blood glucose; slow administration rate; provide adequate fluid; limit type or amount of carbohydrate; consider administering insulin.

13. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Nausea and vomiting Possible causes- obstruction; delayed gastric emptying; intolerance to concentration or volume of formula; drug therapy; psychological reaction to tube feeding Preventive/corrective measures- discontinue tube feeding check gastric residual; slow administration rate, use continuous drip feedings, or discontinue tube feeding . use small volume of dilute formula and increase volume and concentration gradually; use continuous drip feeding. change drug, drug form, or dosage if possible; use antinausea and antiemetic drugs.

14. Prevention or correction of tube-feeding complications • Skin irritation at enterostomy site Possible causes- leakage of GI secretions and friction caused by the tube Preventive/corrective measures- keep site clean; inspect area for redness, tenderness, and drainage; use protective skin cream. Note: Many of the complications presented here can be caused by the client’s primary disorder rather than the tube feeding.
