Abstract:
Enteral feeding allows adequate nutritional support to be delivered to a patient via a feeding tube. There are a multitude of reasons why enteral feeding may be the most suitable method of feeding a hospitalised animal. This article provides a general overview of the three main feeding tubes used in veterinary practice: the naso-oesophageal tube, the oesophagostomy tube and the percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube. It also discusses how to appropriately choose, use and care for these tubes.

Existence of some holes at internal ribs enhances the function and value of the tubes. A new extrusion method is proposed here for the forming of this shape by extrusion with joining. The method involves the use of a unique mandrel that has a slit along its axis and two guides at the slit exit. A holed sheet is fed through the slit and joined with the inner surface of extrude tube. Effect of two parameters, that are tube-wall thickness and guide position h which is distance from guide top to die surface were clarified by FEA.

Abstract:
In order to study the influence of the change of the guide vane airfoil on the flow characteristics in the draft tube of a reversible hydraulic turbine, a reversible hydraulic turbine was used as the object of study, and the effect of the change on the flow pattern, energy loss, and pressure pulsation in the draft tube area was studied based on the SST k-ω turbulence model. The results show that under low flow conditions, the modified movable guide vane directly affects the direction and speed of water entering the draft tube, reduces the density of vortex in the draft tube area, reduces the i

Abstract:
Objective: To identify the most prescribed drugs by enteral feeding tube in a public hospital and to a guideline for safe medication preparation and administration via enteral feeding tubes. Methods: A cross-sectional study with analysis of the daily prescriptions of patients exclusively using an enteral catheter in intensive care units and inpatients of the medical clinic specialty, in which descriptive statistics were used to identify the prevalence of medication use by tube. In a second step, a protocol was developed for the situation in which oral medications are prescribed to patients wit

Abstract:
The significant die unfittingness and springback, occuring during the numerically controlled (NC) bending process of large diameter thin-walled CT20 titanium alloy tube, has an obvious influence on the shape and the geometrical precision of the bent tube, furthermore on the assembly precision and the sealing capability. The changing rules of die fittingness and springback of large diameter thin-walled CT20 titanium alloy tube under different bending parameters were investigated and the mechanism was analysed using finite element method (FEM) in this paper. The result shows that the springback o
