RESOURCES NEEDED IN PLANNING
AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

 Dietary Intake Data


 Isthe collection of information of foods and
dietary supplements intake that will assess the
accurate and reliable intake estimation.
Intake of foods is also used to craft dietary
guidance and evaluate the risks associated
with food-borne hazards / diseases.
RESOURCES NEEDED IN PLANNING
AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

 Nutrient Intake Analysis (NIA)


 Isthe process of analysing nutrient intake of
an individual to make food choices to nourish
and optimize health and to define level of
nurtiture in an individual for a given criterion
of nutritional adequacy.
RESOURCES NEEDED IN PLANNING
AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

Food Diary
 Subjects
record all food and beverages
consumed over three consecutive days (two
weekdays and one weekend day).
 Theconsumed items can be measured using a
scale or other household items, such as
measuring cups or spoons, or estimated using a
portion-size guide.
RESOURCES NEEDED IN PLANNING
AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

Food Diary
Trained staff must provide detailed
instructions on how to record intake and
the completed records need to be
entered into a software program, such as
Nutrition Data System for Research (NDSR),
for analysis.
RESOURCES NEEDED IN PLANNING
AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

24 Hours Recall


 Subjectsare asked to report all foods and
beverages consumed in the past 24 hours. This
can be done via telephone or face-to-face
interview.
 Trainedstaff must conduct the interview to
prompt for details, such as cooking methods and
portion sizes. The data needs to be entered into a
software program, such as NDSR, for analysis.

AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

24 Hours Recall


Automated self- administered 24-hour
recall technique is also now available at
http://riskfactor.cancer.gov/tools/instrum
ents/asa24/
RESOURCES NEEDED IN PLANNING
AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

 Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ):


 Subjects report how frequently certain food and
beverage items were consumed over a specific
period of time (typically 1 year). Most FFQ versions
ask portion size questions of every food item, as well
as general questions about common cooking
practices (e.g. type of fat typically added while
cooking).
RESOURCES NEEDED IN PLANNING
AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

 Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ):


 Most FFQs are available in paper or electronic
format and take about 1 hour to complete.
Computerized software programs calculate nutrient
intake by multiplying the reported frequency of
each food by the amount of nutrient in a serving of
that food. There are no data entry requirements for
the study team.
RESOURCES NEEDED IN PLANNING
AND IMPLEMENTING DIETARY REGIMEN

 Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ):


 FFQs are usually validated for a period of 6 months
or 1 year and repeat administration is not
recommended for a period shorter than 6 months.

IMPORTANCE OF NUTRITIONAL CARE

MALNUTRITION associated with acute and


chronic disease is common in hospital
setting.
It is one of the most common conditions
affecting the care of hospitalized clients.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

1. ORAL DELIVERY
2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING
3. PARENTERAL FEEDING
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

1. ORAL DELIVERY
The most common methods of nutrient delivery but
may be affected with the following conditions:
a. Iatrogenic Malnutrition
b. Induced Malnutrition
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

1. IATROGENIC MALNUTRITION – It is a form of


malnutrition due to routine hospital practices such as
extended periods of food or nutrient deprivation
because of treatments, diagnostic procedures,
therapy and rehabilitation.
2. INDUCED MALNUTRITION – Is a results of physician’s
order or institutional policy due to diagnostic
procedures, surgical operation & other treatment
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

1. ORAL DELIVERY considerations:


a. Selective or Non-Selective. Ex. No Red Meat
b. Eating Environment
c. Assisted Feeding VS Self Feeding
d. Assisting Disabled Client
e. Supplemental Feeding
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

SUPPLEMENTAL FEEDING:
a. MODULAR SUPPLEMENTS
b. INTACT OR POLYMERIC FORMULAS
c. ELEMENTAL OR PREDIGESTED FORMULAS
d. DISEASE-SPECIFIC FORMULAS
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

SUPPLEMENTAL FEEDING:
a. MODULAR SUPPLEMENTS
a. Contains only one nutrient designed for client
who require the addition of only one nutrient.
Example: Moducal, Nutrisource CHO, Microlipid,
Amino Acids.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

SUPPLEMENTAL FEEDING:
b. INTACT OR POLYMERIC FORMULAS
a. Used when the gastrointestinal tract is functional
and the client needs all the essential nutrients in a
specified volume. Example: ENSURE, SUSTACAL,
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

SUPPLEMENTAL FEEDING:
c. ELEMENTAL OR PREDIGESTED FORMULAS
a. The nutrients in this formulas are easier to digest or
already partially digested. It is rapidly digested
and apt to be present in the small intestine in
higher concentration. Example: FLEXICAL, VITAL,
VIVONEX
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

SUPPLEMENTAL FEEDING:
d. DISEASE-SPECIFIC FORMULAS
a. The nutrients in this formulas are designed for
clients with specific metabolic problems.
Example: Liver Disease – Hepatic Aid, Travasob
Hepatic, Pulmonary – Respalor, Pulmocare
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING


a. Second way of delivering nutrients to
clients. With some medical conditions,
oral feeding is impossible, insufficient, or
impractical. NGT Feeding – Naso-Gastric
Tube Feeding
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING


b. It can be commercially prepared or can
be prepared by client or significant
others to be less expensive.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING


c. Indications of Tube Feeding.
1. Mechanical Difficulties that make chewing or
swallowing is impossible or difficult.
2. Intestinal Disease that cannot digest or absorb
food adequately.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING


c. Indications of Tube Feeding.
3. Client refuses to eat or cannot eat
4. Client is unable to consume a sufficient
amount of food because of clinical condition
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING consideration:


a. Gastro Intestinal Function g. Administration of
b. Tube Placement Medication
c. Contamination h. Monitoring of Tube-Fed
d. Administration Client
e. Potential Complication i. Home Enteral Nutrition
f. Osmolality
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING consideration:


a. Gastro Intestinal Function
The GIT (Gastrointestinal Tract) should always
be used to the extent possible. Oral supplements
should be considered before tube feeding ; tube
feeding should always be considered before
intravenous feeding
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING consideration:


b. Tube Placement
Feeding Tubes can enter the body through the
nose or through a surgical made opening. NGT,
Nasoduodenal (ND) Tube, Nasojejunal (NJ) Tube,
Ostomy, Colostomy, Esophagostomy,
Gastrostomy
LEFT COLOSTOMY
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING consideration:


b. Tube Placement
Nursing primary responsibility is to monitor the risk of
Regurgitation and Aspiration.
Regurgitation is the back flow of feeding leading to the
lungs & cause infection.
Aspiration – is the state whereby susbstance has been
drawn up into the nose, throat or lungs.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING consideration:


c. Contamination
Unfortunately, Tube Feeding provide an excellent
environment for the growth of microorganism. When the
tube feeding becomes contaminated with bacteria, the
client receiving feeding may become ill and they suffer
from GI problems such as nausea, vomiting or diarrhea.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING consideration:


d. Administration
CONTINUOUS FEEDING
INTERMITTENT FEEDING
BOLUS FEEDING
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

CONTINUOUS FEEDING
It is always recommended for formulas delivered
directly into the small intestine.
Infusion Pump is necessary for precise control of
a continuous feeding.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

INTERMITTENT FEEDING
Means giving a 4-6 hours volume of feeding solution
over 20-30 minutes. Clients tolerate intermittent
feedings much better than bolus feedings because
these feedings more closely approximate normal
eating behavior. The tube needs to be flushed after
each feeding to minimize bacterial growth and
prevent contamination.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

BOLUS FEEDING
Means giving a 4-6 hours volume of feeding solution
within a few minutes. Client is fed only 4 to 6 times per
day. Feeding given by this method are frequently
poorly tolerated, with clients complaining of
abdominal discomfort, nausea, fullness, and cramping.
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

ENTERAL FEEDING POTENTIAL COMPLICATION (e)


1. Mechanical – Tube Irritation, Tube Obstruction, Aspiration
and Regurgitation & Tube Displacement.
2. Gastrointestinal – Cramping, Distention, Bloating, Gas pains,
Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea
3. Metabolic – Dehydration, Overhydration, Hyperglycemia,
Hypernatrimia, Hyponatremia, Hypophopatemia,
Hypercapnia, Hyperkalemia, Hypokalemia
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

ENTERAL FEEDING Consideration:


f. OSMOLALITY
1. The osmolality of the solution is based on the
number of dissolved particles in the solution.
The greater the number of particles, the higher
the osmolality. - Concentration
Osmosis
Movement of fluid from and area of lower solute
concentration to an area of higher solute
concentration
Diffusion
Movement of molecules and ions from an area of
higher concentration to an area of lower
concentration
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. ENTERAL TUBE FEEDING consideration:


a. Gastro Intestinal Function g. Administration of
b. Tube Placement Medication
c. Contamination h. Monitoring of Tube-Fed
d. Administration Client
e. Potential Complication i. Home Enteral Nutrition
f. Osmolality
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. PARENTERAL FEEDING
Nutrients are delivered to the client
through the veins (intravenously) is the
third means of feeding.
a) Peripheral Parenteral Nutrition (PPN)
b) Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN)
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

2. Peripheral Parenteral Nutrition (PPN)


Feeding via vein away from the center of
the body in peripheral veins.
3. Total Parenteral Nutrition (PPN)
Feeding via central vein particularly in
subclavian or jugular vein

2. Peripheral Parenteral Nutrition (PPN)


It is an effective method of nutritional support
for clients with mild to moderate nutritional
deficiencies who are unable to receive
enteral nutrition or for whom the central
venous route is inaccessible or undesirable.

Potential candidates are clients who are
anticipated to require nutritional support for
longer than 10 days or who have an
increased requirement for energy such as
clients who have:
METHODS OF NUTRIENT DELIVERY

3. Total Parenteral Nutrition (PPN) INDICATIONS
