Application of naso-intestinal tube feeding in enteral nutrition support for patients with advanced Parkinson's disease
Objective To explore the effect of enteral nutrition support with naso-intestinal tube on nutritional status and com-plications in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease.Methods Thirty-two patients with advanced Parkinson's disease from February,2020 to January,2023 were selected.The patients were treated with enteral nutrition support through indwelling naso-intestinal tube.After 2 weeks,the laboratory test indicators such as hemoglobin,total protein,albumin and globulin were observed.The muscle tone score and the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux,aspiration and aspiration pneumonia complications were recorded.SF-36 score was conducted to evaluate the quality of life of patients.The changes of above indicators were compared before and after in-tervention.Results The levels of hemoglobin,total protein and albumin after intervention were significantly higher than those before intervention(P＜0.05).The levels of globulins were increased,but there was no significant difference between before and after intervention(P＞0.05).After intervention,the muscle tone was decreased and the incidence of aspiration and aspiration pneumonia complications was significantly decreased(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in scores of the quality of life before and after intervention(P＞0.05).Conclusions Naso-enteral tube feeding is used to provide enteral nutrition support treatment for patients with advanced Parkinson's disease.The nutritional status of the patients has been significantly improved,and complications caused by eating can be reduced.It has a clinical application value.
