4
Oral diets “House” or regular diet Therapeutic diets Maintain or restore health & nutritional status Accommodate changes in digestion, absorption, or organ function Provide nutrition therapy through nutrient content changes
5
© 2007 Thomson - Wadsworth Oral diets Changes from the house diet Caloric level Consistency Single nutrient manipulation Preparation Food restriction Number, size, frequency of meals Addition of supplements
6
© 2007 Thomson - Wadsworth Oral diets Texture modifications Soft diets Liquid diets Clear liquid Full liquid Consider osmolality Table 7.1 Preparation for a specific medical test

9
Oral Supplements Goal: Increase nutrient density without increasing volume Snacks Liquid meal replacement formulas Modular products Commercial supplements

Appetite Stimulants Drugs that stimulate appetite Prednisone Megestrol acetate Dronabinol

Enteral Nutrition Feeding through the GI tract via tube, catheter or stoma delivering nutrients distal to oral cavity “Tube feeding” Indicated for patients with functioning GI but unable to self-feed Contraindications Advantages / Disadvantages?

16
© 2007 Thomson - Wadsworth Enteral Nutrition GI Access Access route described by where it enters the body and where the tip is located Nasogastric Orogastric Nasointestinal Typically used for short term Figure 7.3 Disadvantages?

Enteral Nutrition GI Access – “Ostomy” Gastrostomy Jejunostomy PEG More permanent Table 7.4

22
Enteral Nutrition Formulas Based on substrates, nutrient density, osmolality, viscosity Protein Soy or casein 10-25% kcal Elemental or chemically defined Specialized amino acid profiles
23
© 2007 Thomson - Wadsworth Enteral Nutrition Formulas Carbohydrate Monosaccharides, oligosaccarides, dextrins, maltodextrins Lactose & sucrose free FOS Fiber ?
24
© 2007 Thomson - Wadsworth Enteral Nutrition Formulas Lipid Corn or soy oil Long- and medium-chain TG Omega-3 fatty acids Structured lipids
25
© 2007 Thomson - Wadsworth Enteral Nutrition Formulas Vitamins and minerals Meet DRI Supplemental amounts Fluid and nutrient density 1.0-2.0 kcal per mL Difference depends on water content Ensure adequate fluid - 80% water for 1 kcal per mL Osmolality and osmolarity
26

Enteral Nutrition Feeding techniques/ delivery methods Bolus feedings Intermittent feedings Continuous feedings
29

31
© 2007 Thomson - Wadsworth Enteral Nutrition Complications Mechanical complications Clogged or misplaced tubes GI complications Diarrhea Aspiration
32
© 2007 Thomson - Wadsworth Enteral Nutrition Monitoring for complications Dehydration Tube Feeding Syndrome Electrolyte Imbalances Underfeeding or Overfeeding Hyperglycemia Refeeding Syndrome Monitor serum phosphorus, mg, potassium

36
Parenteral Nutrition Administration by “vein” a.k.a. – PN, TPN, CVN, IVH TPN vs. PPN Indicated if unable to use oral diet or enteral nutrition Certification of medical necessity
37

Parenteral Nutrition Solutions Compounded by pharmacist using “clean room” Two-in-one Dextrose & amino acids Lipids added separately Clear - easier to identify precipitates Three-in-one Dextrose, amino acids & lipids Single administration
