Abstract:
Objective To explore the factors related to the tolerance to enteral nutrition (EN) in gastric carcinoma patients undergoing surgical treatment and the implementation strategy of EN.Methods Fifty-four patients with gastric carcinoma undergoing surgery from November 2011 to September 2012 in the Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Qingdao University were enrolled.EN were applied with sequential and gradual strategies.The tolerance status to EN was recorded.Factors related to the patient tolerance to EN were analyzed using single-factor and multiple-factor Logistic regression analysis.The incidences of gastrointestinal symptoms during EN application were recorded.Results Among the 54 patients,49 (90.74%) patients could tolerate EN.Single-factor analysis and multiple-factor Logistic regression analysis both showed that tumor staging (single-factor analysis:x2 =7.287,P =0.007 ; multiple-factor analysis:t =2.559,P =0.014) and surgical approach (singlefactor analysis:x2 =7.825,P =0.005 ; multiple-factor analysis:t =2.254,P =0.043) were major factors affecting patient tolerance to EN.Among the patients tolerant to EN,abdominal distension (19/49,38.8%) was the major gastrointestinal symptom of EN.Conclusion The sequential and gradual EN application strategy is suitable for the patients with gastric cancinoma after surgery,and can be widely used in clinical practice.
