About

This was a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled clinical trail involved tracheostomized patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage.The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the clinical effect of Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding vs Nasogastric Tube Feeding in Tracheostomized Patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Compared to Nasogastric Tube Feeding, can the Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding better improve the nutritional status, extubation of tracheostomy tube, pulmonary infection, neurological deficit of Patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage Compared to Nasogastric Tube Feeding, is the Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding safer.

Participants will be divided into two groups randomly, with different nutritional support respectively.

Full description

Safe and efficient enteral nutrition support for tracheostomized patients with intracerebral hemorrhage continues to be a challenge. Nasogastric tube feeding has been the mainstay in China but has a significant risk of adverse events. Intermittent oro-esophageal tube feeding is an established enteral nutrition mode that can be used to replace Nasogastric tube feeding. This study reports the clinical effect of Intermittent oro-esophageal tube feeding vs Nasogastric tube feeding in tracheostomized patients with intracerebral hemorrhage receiving basic medical treatment and comprehensive rehabilitation therapy.

However, in the field of intracerebral hemorrhage combined with tracheostomy, research on Intermittent oro-esophageal tube feeding is still relatively limited. Therefore, this study was carried out to explore the clinical effect of Intermittent oro-esophageal tube feeding vs. Nasogastric tube feeding in tracheostomized patients with intracerebral hemorrhage, mainly on nutritional status, extubation of tracheostomy tube, pulmonary infection, neurological deficit, and intervention-related adverse events.

---

120 participants in 2 patient groups

Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding+Basic treatment

Experimental group

Description:

The patients were provided with 1) basic treatment including intracranial pressure reduction, anti-infection therapy, blood pressure and blood glucose control. For the observation group, the nasogastric tube was removed, and Intermittent oro-esophageal tube feeding was initiated for nutrition support within 4 hours after completing the admission assessment, following the standard Intermittent oro-esophageal tube feeding procedure.

Treatment:

Device: Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding

Behavioral: Basic treatment

Nasogastric Tube Feeding+Basic treatment

Active Comparator group

Description:

The patients were provided with 1) basic treatment including intracranial pressure reduction, anti-infection therapy, blood pressure and blood glucose control. Patients in the control group were provided with nutrition support by the indwelling nasogastric tube. The entire feeding process strictly followed the standardized procedure for nasogastric feeding.

Treatment:

Behavioral: Basic treatment

Device: Nasogastric Tube Feeding
