We investigated techniques for predicting successful weaning from nasogastric tube feeding in patients with aspiration pneumonia.
The objective was to investigate in infants submitted to videofluoroscopic swallowing study during the first year of life, the association between aspiration and later tube feeding, and to identify potential risk factors related to feeding route outcome.
The objectives were determine the impact of free water administration on clinical outcomes based on the hypothesis that patients receiving more thin liquids have worse outcomes related to increased risk of gastroesophageal reflux.
The aim of the review was to evaluate the impact of bolus/intermittent enteral nutrition compared with continuous enteral nutrition for the following outcomes: diarrhea, constipation, emesis/vomiting, gastric residual volume, aspiration, and glycemic control in adult patients receiving intragastric prepyloric enteral nutrition in the hospital setting.
Several factors should be considered when providing enteral nutrition, including timing and rate of initiation, advancement regimen, feeding modality, and risk of complications.
Evaluation of the effects and safety of intermittent tube feeding for stroke patients with dysphagia.
Description of a new technology detecting the presence and duration of gastro-esophageal reflux and preventing aspiration in real-time. This case shows how HFNC oxygen therapy exposes patients to significantly more reflux events as compared to mechanical ventilation.
Discussion on risk-feeding policies referring to persons who are eating and drinking rather than a healthcare technique.
