Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of preemptive nasogastric tube placement for improving nutritional status and clinical outcomes in hospitalized infants with congenital heart disease.Methods:Children from 0 to 12 months with congenital heart disease hospitalized in cardiovascular center of Children's Hospital of Fudan University from February to July 2018 were selected as control group through continuous sampling. Children hospitalized were selected from September 2018 to February 2019 as intervention group. The control group followed the current feeding method, the intervention group used preemptive nasogastric tube placement. The nutritional indicators, feeding indicators and clinical outcomes of the two groups were compared to evaluate the intervention effect.Results:The serum albumin and prealbumin of the children in the intervention group were (36.81±4.59) g/L and (162.74±48.17) g/L, which were higher than those in the control group (34.80±5.21) g/L and (142.98± 33.96) g/L, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t values were -2.721, -3.169, both P<0.05); the daily enteral intake, calorie intake and single enteral calorie intake of children in the intervention group were (124.93±27.97) ml·kg -1·d -1, (376.48±88.53) kj·kg -1·d -1, (48.39±9.13) kj·kg -1·time -1, higher than the control group (114.74±30.63) ml·kg -1·d -1, (330.01±90.75) kj·kg -1·d -1, (44.24±13.31) kj·kg -1·time -1, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t values were -2.511, -3.750, -2.382, all P<0.05). the incidence of feeding difficulties in the intervention group was 4.95% (5/101) lower than 14.68% (16/109) of the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 5.513, P<0.05); the proportion of children in the intervention group reaching the target feeding amount when discharged from the hospital was 97.03% (98/101), higher than 84.40% (92/109) of the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 9.699, P<0.05). Conclusions:Preemptive nasogastric tube placement is safety and effectively for patients with congenital heart disease in clinical infants. but it still needs a large sample for a long time to confirm its effectiveness.
