ABSTRACT
Objective@#To evaluate the effect of a new kind of nasogastric feeding registration form based on energy intake in perioperative nutrition support for patients with oral cancer.@*Methods@#According to the specification of nasal feeding and summarizing the ingredients in common foods, the form was optimized and applied. By the cluster sampling method, the knowledge about energy intake of 12 nurses were investigated before and after the use of the form. The accuracy of energy intake assessment of 5 patients by 12 nurses respectively and the time required for single registration was compared before and after the use. Meanwhile, the knowledge about nasal feeding of 18 patients before the use and 17 patients after the use was compared.@*Results@#The mean score of knowledge about energy intake of nurses was 57.50±17.77 before the use, which was lower than that after the use (89.00 ±6.18), the accuracy rate before the use (61.67%, 37/60) was lower than that after the use (93.33%, 56/60), and the mean time was (18.16 ±6.26) s, which was longer than that after the use (12.65 ±5.67) s (t=17.317, χ2=17.252 and t=22.445 respectively, all P<0.01). The mean score of knowledge about nasal feeding before the use (69.44 ±15.89) was lower than that after the use (86.47±11.15)(t=-3.649, P=0.001). All difference showed statistical significance.@*Conclusion@#The nasal feeding registration form based on energy intake is clear and easy to fill out. It can not only help the medical staff calculate the energy intake of patients more accurately, but also help formulate nutritional intervention plan and promote the recovery of patients. Meanwhlie, It shortens the writing time and improves the effect of education. In conclusion, it is worth being popularized.
