This article discusses how services for people receiving enteral nutrition via a nasogastric or gastrostomy tube at home are organised. The home enteral nutrition team's role is also explored. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence outlines the need for nutritional support in adults to be high quality and cost effective. It is important therefore that local services are able to provide people receiving enteral nutrition with safe and effective care that they consider satisfactory. The discussion is pertinent to nurses caring for older people because gastrostomy tube placement is increasingly common in people aged over 60. A gastrostomy tube is the usual route by which enteral nutrition is given in the community.
本文讨论了如何组织为在家中通过鼻胃管或胃造口管接受肠内营养的患者提供的服务。还探讨了家庭肠内营养团队的作用。英国国家卫生与临床优化研究所概述了成人营养支持需要高质量且具有成本效益。因此,地方服务机构能够为接受肠内营养的患者提供他们认为满意的安全有效的护理非常重要。该讨论与照顾老年人的护士相关,因为胃造口管置入在60岁以上人群中越来越普遍。胃造口管是在社区中给予肠内营养的常用途径。
