Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of 3 different nutritional support modes of nasogastric tube nutrition,nasoenteric tube nutrition and nasoenteric tube combined with nasogastric tube nutrition on the biliary-related indices of critically ill patients.Methods The observational research method was conducted,the patients admitted to the department of intensive care unit(ICU)of Qingdao Hospital,University of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences(Qingdao Municipal Hospital)from June 2023 to May 2024 serving as the subjects of the study.The subjects were divided into three groups,namely the nasogastric tube group(indwelling nasogastric tube for enteral nutrition),the nasoenteric tube group(indwelling nasoenteric tube for enteral nutrition),and the mixed nutrition group(indwelling nasoenteric tube combined with naso-gastric tube for enteral nutrition)according to the different modes of enteral nutrition given.The clinical data of the patients was collected,including gender,age,previous underlying diseases,nutritional risk screening 2002(NRS2002)score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ),gallbladder volume,data on laboratory-related indices,and prognosis during hospitalisation.Compare the differences between the observed indicators and their change values before and after the initiation of enteral nutrition within each group;analyse the correlation between gallbladder volume and other observed indicators using Spearman's correlation analysis;screen the influencing factors of gallbladder volume using univariate regression analysis;screen the influencing factors of ICU patients'survival during hospitalisation using multifactorial Logistic regression analysis,and plot the receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC curve)of the subjects to analyse the predictive value of each influencing factor on patients'prognosis.Results A total of 141 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study,comprising 54 cases in the nasogastric tube group,38 cases in the nasoenteric tube group,and 49 cases in the mixed nutrition group.Of the patients who survived during ICU hospitalization,105 survived,while 36 died,mortality was 25.53%.① No statistically significant differences were observed in the comparison of gender,age,previous underlying disease,NRS2002 score,and APACHEⅡscore among the enrolled groups.② A comparative analysis was conducted on the biliary-related indexes of the nasogastric tube and nasoenteric tube groups before and after the initiation of enteral nutrition.The results revealed no statistically significant differences between the two groups.On the 7th day of enteral nutrition initiation,the gallbladder volume of the nasoenteric tube group was found to be significantly larger than the gallbladder volume on the 1st day(cm3:28.00±6.36 vs.25.20±4.75,P<0.05).In the mixed nutrition group,the gallbladder volume on the initiation of enteral nutrition on day 7 was significantly smaller than that on the 1st day of initiating enteral nutrition(cm3:25.03±4.69 vs.28.68±5.96,P<0.05).③A comparative analysis was conducted among the three groups,revealing significant variations in the values of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),total bilirubin(TBil),indirect bilirubin(IBil),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),γ-glutamyltranspeptidase(γ-GT),and gallbladder volume across the groups.From 1-7 days following the initiation of enteral nutrition,the bile-related indexes in the nasoenteric tube group exhibited an increasing trend,while the bile-related indexes in the mixed nutrition group demonstrated a decreasing trend.④ Spearman correlation analysis showed that gallbladder volume was significantly and positively correlated with AST,ALT,ALP,and γ-GT(r values of 0.398,0.299,0.242,and 0.262,respectively,all P<0.01).⑤ Multivariate Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the initiation of enteral nutrition for 7 days was associated with a significant advantage,as indicated by an odds ratio(OR)of 1.031,with a 95%confidence interval(95%CI)of 1.004-1.058,and a P value was 0.024.Furthermore,the initiation of enteral nutrition for 7 d AST(OR=1.031,95%CI was 1.004-1.058,P=0.024),TBil(OR=1.187,95%CI was 1.039-1.355,P=0.011),and IBil(OR=0.707,95%CI was 0.542-0.921,P=0.010),and γ-GT(OR=0.985,95%CI was 0.972-0.999,P=0.034)were all factors affecting the survival of ICU patients during hospitalisation.Conclusions In the context of patients receiving intensive care,the prolonged utilisation of nasoenteric feeding tubes for a duration exceeding seven days has been observed to potentially induce an augmentation in gallbladder volume and an elevation in biliary-related indices,including ALT,AST,ALP,and γ-GT.The concomitant administration of nasogastric feeding,grounded in the foundation of simple nasoenteric tube nutrition,has been demonstrated to result in a reduction of these biliary-related indices to a certain extent.
