Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical value of early enteral nutrition (EN) on hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP) in postoperative patients with severe hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods One hundred and forty postoperative patients with severe hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were divided into treatment group (70 cases) and controll group (70 cases) by random digits table. The treatment group was given EN from the second day after operation, while the control group was given total parenteral nutrition (TPN). The incidence and duration of HAP,the incidence of superinfection,the percent and duration of mechanical ventilation and the mortality rate of HAP was observed. Results The incidence of HAP, superinfection and using mechanical ventilation in treatment group [30.0% (21/70), 12.9% (9/70),35.7%(25/70)] were significantly lower than those in control group [47.1%(33/70) ,27.1%(19/70) ,47.1%( 33/70 )] (P < 0.05 ). The duration of HAP and using mechanical ventilation in treatment group[(6.4 ± 2.3 ),(6.4 ± 0.5 ) d] were significantly lower than those in control group [( 15.6 ± 2.1 ), ( 11.4 ± 0.3 ) d] (P < 0.01or < 0.05 ). The mortality rate of HAP in treatment group was significantly lower than that in control group [8.6% (6/70) vs. 18.6% (13/70),P <0.05]. Conclusion Early EN not only effectively decreases the incidence of HAP and superinfection,but also decreases the incidence of mechanical ventilation, shortens the duration of mechanical ventilation and decreases the mortality rate of HAP.
