Abstract:

Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease of unknown aetiology characterised by the degeneration of motor neurones leading to progressive wasting and weakness of the bulbar, limb and respiratory muscles. Symptomatic treatment remains the cornerstone of management. Malnutrition is a common occurrence and an independent risk factor for worse prognosis. Clinical guidelines recommend enteral feeding when there is deterioration in nutritional status and/or dysphagia. However, it remains unclear whether enteral feeding offers any survival advantage. Moreover, the impact of ent

Background: In the unwell child who is unable to feed orally, various methods for enteral feeding having been advocated. The ideal method for a particular child has to be tailored according to his/her anatomy, physiology and requirements. The impact of complex medical background on outcomes and complications following a surgical procedure in children remains largely unrecognized. Aims: 1. To determine whether percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is superior to radiologically inserted gastrostomy (RIG) 2.

Abstract:

A procedure for preparing an enteral formula was developed, using Pakistani indigenous food items. The basis of development was that it would be nutritionally effective, easy to prepare and relatively cheap. 100 indigenous enteral diets were formulated using a computer aided master sheet in which various combinations were analysed. In order to prove the efficacy of these diets, a modified PER was carried out on 6 diets and results indicated a higher PER for the experimental diet. 29 formulations were shortlisted for preparation trials, and 2 main techniques were applied: incubation and cooking

Abstract:

Changes in the health-care system during the past decades have led to an increased transfer of health care to the home environment which also concerns patients treated with home enteral tube feeding (HETF). Research is scarce about how HETF care is functioning. Therefore, the overall aim with this thesis was to describe and explore HETF care and treatment from patients', relatives' and nurses' perspectives. Three qualitative and one quantitative study were used. The findings showed that the HETF treatment and care had a great impact on daily life for both patients and their relatives and impli

Abstract:

Mechanically ventilated critically ill patients treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) require enteral feedings to maintain adequate nutrition during critical illness. Delivery of adequate enteral nutrition is also critical to the recovery of critically ill patients. Enteral nutrition has been shown to decrease length of time on the ventilator, decrease length of stay and ICU and decrease mortality. Despite all the evidence regarding the benefits of enteral nutrition, critically ill patients continue to receive less than their prescribed calories and protein. Nurses are in a unique position

Abstract:

Enteral feeding is commonly used in paedaitric patients. It helps to improve the digestive, absorptive, immunologic and nutrition status. However, poor handling in enteral feeding can lead to bacterial contaminations and severe consequences resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. At present, there are no definite guidelines on the handling of enteral feeding in local setting, therefore developing evidence based guideline on enteral feeding is critically important to eliminate inconsistent practices and prevent nosocomial infections related to enteral feeding.

Malnutrition and nutritional deprivation are common in hospital patients. Consequent dysfunction is exacerbated in the presence of an inflammatory state and leads to increased morbidity, mortality and treatment cost. This thesis tested the hypothesis that clinical outcome could be improved, and treatment cost reduced, if enteral nutritional (EN) was; a) initiated earlier after the pathological event, and b) when > 50% of a patient's estimated energy and nitrogen requirements were met by EN (ie. aggressive EN).

Abstract:

The incidence of neonatal infections caused by Enterobacteriaceae has been increasing in recent years, and they are now recognised as the predominant causative agents in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) outbreaks. Klebsiella spp. and Serratia spp. are the most common causative pathogens, and E. coli is one of the leading causes of neonatal meningitis and sepsis. The infant intestinal flora is influenced by the feeding regime. This study focuses on assessing the risk to neonates from the ingestion of the Enterobacteriaceae such as; Enterobacter hormaechei, Enterobacter ludwigii, Enterobacter
