RESUMO
Objective To describe the adequate feeding of early enteral nutrition in critical patients with cancer, and explore its influencing factors. Methods A retrospective analysis study was performed and 161 patients were involved. Results Nearly 57.14%patients got adequate feeding. The independent risk factors included complications (P < 0.05,OR=2.312,OR 95%CI 1.078-4.958), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) scores (P < 0.05,OR=1.111,OR 95%CI 1.017-1.214) and hypoalbuminemia (P<0.05,OR=2.252,OR 95%CI 1.036-4.892) , and the protective factor was previous enteral nutrition experience (P<0.01,OR=0.123,OR 95%CI 0.021-0.494). Patients who got adequate feeding showed more increase in albumin levels, more decrease in APACHEⅡscores and shorter ICU stays. Conclusions Part of patients got inadequate feeding, due to comprehensive effects of many factors. And adequate feeding may be beneficial to the increase of albumin levels, also helps patients rehabilitate early and shorten the ICU stays.
