Blenderised tube feeding (BTF) has become an increasingly popular method of nutrition support for long-term tube-fed patients mostly children. This study surveyed perceptions and experiences on BTF shared on YouTube. From 71 videos analysed, attitudes towards BTF were mostly positive (91%) and included psychosocial benefits and improvements in gastrointestinal symptoms; no differences between caregivers and healthcare professionals were observed. Very few speakers (8%) felt there was a lack of support regarding use of BTF in schools and from healthcare professionals, because it is not part of the standard clinical management protocols. The most commonly used food items in blends included carrots (n = 16) and chicken (n = 11), and experiences from those who have used BTF included tips on recipes for blends, storing feeds and ensuring nutritional adequacy. Analysis of YouTube content on BTF was considerably positive and suggests that BTF is feasible and safe way to provide nutrition to tube-fed patients.
搅拌管饲（BTF）已成为长期管饲患者（主要是儿童）营养支持的一种越来越受欢迎的方法。本研究调查了 YouTube 上分享的关于 BTF 的看法和经验。在分析的 71 个视频中，BTF 的态度大多是积极的（91%），包括心理社会益处和胃肠道症状的改善；护理人员和医疗保健专业人员之间没有观察到差异。很少有发言者（8%）认为在学校和医疗保健专业人员中缺乏关于使用 BTF 的支持，因为它不是标准临床管理方案的一部分。混合中最常用的食物包括胡萝卜（n=16）和鸡肉（n=11），使用 BTF 的人的经验包括有关混合食谱、储存饲料和确保营养充足的提示。对 BTF 的 YouTube 内容分析相当积极，表明 BTF 是为管饲患者提供营养的可行且安全的方法。
