Once your feed is done, WASH HANDS before!!!! disconnecting or flushing. Cleanliness helps to prevent germs getting passed onto gtube and equipment. It was forgotten to be shown in video, trying to help out newbies in the world of tube feeding.
How many hours can you keep a feeding bag and formula, is it 24 hours and then you discard the bag in the formula.. my mom is on continuous feeding, The hospital gave me 15 minutes of training I had to go on RU-vid in order to do it correctly, I understand from some people some hospitals and give them no training at all, it’s a some these a shame hospitals.
I have a 250ml milk and I want it to be given in 1hr and 30 minutes, how much do I have to put in Feed Rate, I set it 150mL and it lasts 2hrs and 30 minutes, how to calculate 250ml and it lasts 1hr and 30 minutes, thanks
I bet this reply is extremely late but hope it helps someone just divide the amount of food you want given by the amount of time. So in this case 250/1.5 hours. That puts you at approx 167 ml per hour.
why this video did not check the residual, tube placement and bowel sounds? other video I've watched, checking bowel sounds, placement and residual was done first prior to administering the feeding.
I have a question for who ever can answer me I have alot of health issues one of the is seizures the other is really bad stomach would I have one of these if I constantly get sick or don't eat breakfast lunch and dinner
The only way you would get one is if you have an illness what makes you not able to swallow or if you lose touch weight your doctor might consider it that is in the UK tho
