Enteral Nutrition

Supplementation or total nutrition feeding directlyinto the GIT using a feeding tube.

Beneficial effect on maintenance of intestinalstructure and function.

Enhanced utilization of nutrients, ease and safetyof administration and cost efficiency.

Formula Selection:

8/3/2019 Lecture on en and PN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/lecture-on-en-and-pn 21/92

Formula Selection: Substrate Sources

POLYMERIC FORMULA composed of intact proteins, disaccharides and

polysaccharides variable amounts of fat, residue and lactose. osmolality of polymeric

formulas is usually lower thanthe osmolality of ³elemental´formulas.

In general, these formulasrequire a functioning

gastrointestinal tract fordigestion and absorption of nutrients.

DIETARY FIBER 

Fiber-containing enteral formulas are most viscous

and may require a larger diameter feeding tube foradequate flow.

8/3/2019 Lecture on en and PN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/lecture-on-en-and-pn 26/92

Formula Selection: Osmolality

Measure of the oncotic pressure exerted by a solution;

What determines osmolality?Number and

Size of : electrolytes, CHO; minerals; CHONFactors that can increase osmolality?

Concentration of formulas; (energy:volume)Addition of modular products

Formulas with higher osmolality may induce the shiftof free water into the intestinal space; thus may

cause rapid transit diarrhea.

Protein Content Calculations

To calculate the

grams of protein

supplied by a TPN solution, multiply the

total volume of 

amino acid solution

(in ml*) supplied in aday by the amino

acid concentration.

Example Protein

Calculation

1000 ml of 8%amino acids:

1000 ml x 8 g/100

ml = 80g

Or 1000 x .08 = 80 g

Parenteral Nutrition

Calculation of Dextrose Calories Calculate grams of dextrose:

± Multiply the total volume of dextrose soln(in ml) supplied in a day by the dextrose

concentration. This gives you grams of dextrose supplied in a day. 

Multiply the grams of dextrose by 3.4 (there

are 3.4 kcal/g dextrose) to determinekcalories supplied by dextrose in a day.

Sample Dextrose Calculation

1000 ml of D50W (50% dextrose)

 ± 1000 ml x 50g / 100 ml = 500g dextrose

 ± OR 1000 ml x .50 = 500g dextrose

500g dextrose x 3.4 kcal/g = 1700 kcal

Parenteral Nutrition

Calculation of Lipid Content

To determine kcalories supplied by lipid*,multiply the volume of 10% lipid (in ml) by1.1; multiply the volume of 20% lipid (in ml)by 2.0. 

If lipids are not given daily, divide totalkcalories supplied by fat in one week by 7 toget an estimate of the average fat kcaloriesper day. 

*Lipid emulsions contain glycerol, so lipid emulsion does

not have 9 kcal per gram as it would if it were pure fat.

Some use 10 kcal/gm for lipid emulsions.

Calculation of Dextrose/AA with 

Piggyback Lipids (2-in-1)

Determine patient's kcalorie, protein,and fluid needs. 

Determine lipid volume and rate for"piggy back" administration. ± Determine kcals to be supplied from lipid. 

(Usually 30% of total kcals). 

± Divide lipid kcals by 1.1 kcal/cc if you areusing 10% lipids; divide lipid kcals by 2kcal/cc if you are using 20% lipids. This isthe total volume. 

± Divide total volume of lipid by 24 hr to

determine rate in cc/hr.

Determine Protein concentration

Subtract volume of lipid from total fluidrequirement to determine remainingfluid needs. 

Divide protein requirement (in grams)by remaining fluid requirement andmultiply by 100. This gives you theamino acid concentration in %. 

Multiply protein requirement in grams x4 to determine calories from protein

Determine dextrose concentration.

  Subtract kcals of lipid + calories fromprotein from total kcals to determineremaining kcal needs. 

Divide "remaining kcals" by 3.4 kcal/gto determine grams of dextrose.  Divide dextrose grams by remaining

fluid needs (in protein calculations) and

multiply by 100 to determine dextroseconcentration.  Determine rate of AA/dex solution by

dividing "remaining fluid needs´ by 24hr.

Monitoring for Complications

Malnourished patients at risk for refeedingsyndrome should have serum phosphorus,magnesium, potassium, and glucose levelsmonitored closely at initiation of SNS. (B)

In patients with diabetes or risk factors forglucose intolerance, SNS should be initiatedwith a low dextrose infusion rate and bloodand urine glucose monitored closely. (C)

Blood glucose should be monitored

frequently upon initiation of SNS, upon anychange in insulin dose, and untilmeasurements are stable. (B)

Maintain full PN support until pt is tolerating1/3 of needs via enteral route

Decrease TPN by 50% and continue to taperas the enteral feeding is advanced to total
