PEG TUBE | Percutaneous endoscopic gastoscopy |
Why are most oral supplements lactose free? | Intermittent lactose intolerance is frequently seen |
Will Std tube feedings corrent electrolyte embalance? | No, just nl nutrition. Given mild-mod GI stress |
What is a low residue diet? | Those foods that slow or don't speed up intestinal emptying time (usually used post op or weining off perienteral diet) |
High Protein & calorie tube feeding indications | Hypermetabolic states: septic, ^protein requirements |
Elemental/hydrolyzed products indictaions | Malabsorptive/maldigestive dz's,(pancreatitis, Crohn's) Bowel rest |
Monitoring parameters for tube feeding | I/O's, wt, tolerance, fluid/electyrolytes, |
Complications of tube feeding | Aspiration Pneumonia, Diarrhea, Intake (too much/too little), Fluids (may exceed TF plan) |
Parenteral Nutrition Options | PN, TPN, PPN (nutrition directly into blood) |
Use and route of TPN | Through central vein, (subclavian or SVC) |
PPN administration | through traditional IV lines, higher vol needed, meets moderate protein and energy needs. SHORT TERM. |
What must be consulted prior to TPN start? | Both nutrition and pharmacy |
TPN Tips | Central regimens should be initiated at no greater than 55cc/hr, advance w/ time, Tapering to avoid rebound hypoglycemia, lipid emulsion-administered continuously |
How do we adjust for fluid needs when pt in on TPN? | Add NS or dextrose seprately, don't mess with the actual TPN bag (expensve) |
Goals for PN | Meet pt's nutritional needs, avoid complications, get pt onto oral/enteral feeds ASAP |
Medical Nutrition Therapy Assessment | PES, problem, etiology, signs and sxs |

Large amounts of folic acid (>1000mcg/day) | Can mask vit B12 defienciey |

Gastric Cancer MNT | -high protein,calorie, liquid or solids as tolerated |
Post Gastrectomy dumping syndrome MNT | -high protein, fiber, low simple sugars, avoid liquids after meals, B12, iron supplements |
Cholecystits/lithiasis diet | Low Fat (regular recommendations 25-30% daily intake |
Pancreatitis Diet | NPO w/ IV fluids->CL->Low fat, enzyme replacement if steatorrhea preasent, jejunum feeding |
Moderate to high protein support, ^calorie, mod. fat, oral OTC vit/mineral supplement | Hepatitis diet |
Vit B5 | panthoeenic acid |
Biotin | Vit B7 |
Folic acid | B9 |
Vitamin Supplementation in therapeutic doses for alcoholics | Thiamine, folic acid, B-12, Vit K |
