When administering medications through a feeding tube, it is recommended that sustained/extended-release drugs should be avoided. Crushing these medications can result in rapid release of a large amount of product at one time, resulting in erratic blood levels & possible toxic levels of the drug . (Cite source 1 for the first time ) 2. The gold st&ard for checking feeding tube placement is radiography; an electro-magnetic tube-placement device (ETPD) is sometimes used in lieu of an x-ray for this purpose. However, many cases have been reported where clinicians failed to recognize tube misplacement in the respiratory tract of patients. “Thus, one must continue to question the wisdom of eliminating radiographic confirmation of tube position before starting feedings” . (Cite source 4 for the first time, p. 157) 3. Between 2013-2015, the database reported that there had been 25 cases of feeding tubes inadvertently placed in the respiratory tract using ETPD; 17 of these cases resulted in pneumothorax . (Cite source 4 for the second time) 4. assessed nurses’ knowledge of evidence-based guidelines for administering medications per feeding tube in patients receiving enteral feedings & preventing complications such as tube clogging & drug-nutrient interactions. (Cite source 1 for the second time) 5. Similarly, reviewed the literature “to determine gastrointestinal absorption of medications administered via post-pyloric enteral feeding tubes” (Cite source 3, p. 549) 6. An educational intervention for care of gastrostomy tubes was developed for nurses from two nursing homes because there were approximately 22 long-term feeding tubes replaced monthly because they were clogged or dislodged . (Cite source 6 the first time) 7. In the 4 months after nurses were educated about long-term management of feeding tubes, the number of gastrostomy tubes replaced from two nursing homes decreased from 38-19 cases . (Cite source 6 for the second time) 8. After initiation of a nurse-led enteral feeding protocol, “more patients achieved their caloric target within a shorter time after admission to the ICU” . (Cite source 5 for the first time, p. 42) 9. ICU patients received a higher daily volume of tube feeding & fewer interruptions of feeding after the nurse-led protocol was implemented . (Cite source 5 for second time) 10. About 24 % of hospitalized pediatric patients require a nasogastric tube (NGT) & about 18% of those patients are in a pediatric intensive care unit . (Cite source 2 for the first time). 11. Although the gold st&ard for verifying nasogastric tube placement has been an abdominal radiograph, pediatric health care providers have long been concerned about the long-term cumulative effects of radiation exposure . (Cite source 2 for second time) 12. Blockages of feeding tubes are frequently the result of inadequate flushing or poorly crushed medications being administered through the tube . (Cite source 7 for the first time)
