Abstract:
Objecive:To observe the incidence of early enteral nutrition-related complications in severe brain-injured patients in ICU and its associated factors.Methods:78 nutrition severe brain-injured patients(GCS 4-8) in ICU receiving enteral nutrition were all carried out for GCS scoring.The enteral feeding amount and speed,serum albumin(ALB) and intestinal feeding tolerance were observed.The incidence rate of all kinds of complications related to enteral nutrition was summarized.Results:The patients with lower GCS had lower total feeding amount,prolonged feeding duration and higher incidence rate of complications.The diarrhea was negatively related with serum ALB level and GCS. Conclusion :Enteral nutrition-related complications are related with the severity of disease and Alb level.Some critically ill patients can not sustain total enteral nutririon(TEN),and parenteral nutrition is necessary.
