Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effects of high index of nutritional quality (INQ) enteral nutrition on clinical outcomes in elderly patients with acute heart failure. Methods:70 elderly patients with acute heart failure who had nutritional risk and needed nasal-feeding from the Department of Geriatrics of Hangzhou Ninth People's Hospital and the 903 Hospital of PLA Joint Support Force Hospital were randomly divided into observation group (n=35) and control group (n=35). Patients in the observation group was treated with high INQ enteral nutrition. After 4 weeks of intervention, the difference of energy and protein supply, parenteral nutrition use, nutrition index, cardiac function index and incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reaction were compared between the two groups. Results:After intervention, the energy and protein supply of nasal-feeding in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05) , and the amount of parenteral nutrition used in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). The nutritional indexes and cardiac function indexes of the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before intervention, and the nutritional status of the patients in the observation group was improved more significantly (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05) . Conclusion:High INQ enteral nutrition can meet the nutritional requirements of elderly patients with heart failure, reduce the use of parenteral nutrition, improve the nutritional status, and promote the recovery of cardiac function.
