Comparison the effect of two nasogastric feeding methods, monitoring and not monitoring residual gastric volume on risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia
Comparison the effect of two methods of NG feeding, monitoring and not monitoring residual gastric volume on risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia
Design
Clinical trial with a control group with sample size of 138 people was allocated randomly by random number table in two groups of intervention and control.
Settings and conduct
The study was conducted in ICU of Golestan Hospital of Ahvaz. In the intervention group, NG feeding was performed with gastric secretion measurements and did not measure in the control group.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: hospitalization in ICU, connected to ventilator and nutrition by NGT/ Exclusion criteria: patients with renal failure; patients with pneumonia
history of abdominal surgery; pregnant patients
Intervention groups
Intervention group: patients received NG feeding after the measurement of gastric secretion volume based on international guidelines.
Control group: patients received NGT feeding in a routine manner without the volume of residual gastric secretion measurement.
Main outcome variables
pneumonia
