About this study

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial to Explore Effect of Multifunctional Nutrition Tube on Social Condition and Experience in Cerebralvascular Accident

The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the psychological condition and experience of ischemic stroke patients who receive enteral nutrition support through either Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube or Nasogastric Tube. Patients will be randomly assigned to either an observation group or a control group, with both groups receiving routine rehabilitation treatment. The observation group will receive enteral nutrition support through Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube, while the control group will receive it through Nasogastric Tube. Researchers will then compare the psychological condition and experience of the two groups.

Read the detailed description

The study will last 15 days for each participant. The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the differences on Psychological Condition and Experience in ischemic stroke patients using Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube and Nasogastric Tube. Patients will be randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, all receiving routine rehabilitation treatment. On this basis, the observation group will use Intermittent Oro esophageal Tube for enteral nutrition support, while the control group will use Nasogastric Tube. Researchers will compare Psychological Condition and Experience of two groups.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • comprehensive rehabilitation therapyBehavioural

    Basic treatment, including corresponding control of risk factors and education on healthy lifestyles.

    Swallowing training, including lemon ice stimulation, empty swallowing training, and pronunciation training.

    Pulmonary function training, including standing training, cough training, and diaphragm muscle training.

  • Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube FeedingDevice

    The observation group was given enteral nutritional support with Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube according to the following procedure: Before each feeding, inside and outside of the tube was cleaned with water. During feeding, the patient should maintain a semi-reclining or sitting position with mouth opened, and the tube was inserted slowly and smoothly into the upper part of the esophagus by medical staffs while the appropriate depth of intubation was checked with the calibration markings on the tube wall. The distance from the incisors to the head part of the tube should be between 22-25 cm. However, the specific depth should be evaluated based on patients' feedback and adjusted accordingly. After insertion, the tail part of the tube should be put into a container full of water and the absence of continuous bubbles indicated a successful intubation. Then, the feeding was to be conducted three times per day with 50 ml per minute and 400-600ml for each feeding.

  • Nasogastric Tube FeedingDevice

    The control group was given enteral nutritional support with Nasogastric Tube Feeding according to the relevant guidelines. Within 4 hours after admission, the placement of the feeding tube was conducted by professional medical staffs and after intubation, the tube was secured to the patient\'s cheek with medical tape. The feeding was conducted once every 3-4 hours, with 200-300ml each time. The total feeding volume was determined based on daily requirements. The feeding content was formulated by the nutritionists based on the patient\'s condition and relevant guidelines to reach the energy demand as 20-25 kcal/kg/day and protein supplementation of 1.2-2.0 g/kg/day for both two groups. For patients with limited tube feeding compliance, we made appropriate adjustments to ensure that they were not at risk of severe malnutrition as much as possible.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7

    Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 is a widely used questionnaire to assess the severity of symptoms related to generalized anxiety disorder. The questionnaire consists of 7 questions, each with different answer options. The respondent needs to select the appropriate answer based on their actual condition and assign a corresponding score. The total score ranges from 0-21, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms.

    Measured: day 1 and day 15

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Patient Health Questionnaire-9

    The total score of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 ranges from 0 to 27, with higher scores indicating more severe depression symptoms.

    Measured: day 1 and day 15

  2. Self-made questionnaire

    By conducting a self-made questionnaire, we can assess patients' feelings of fear, shame, uncertainty, and other emotions related to tube feeding. The scores are then converted to a percentage scale ranging from 0 to 100. In the Likert 5-point scale, higher scores indicate worse and more severe conditions for each question.

    Measured: day 1 and day 15

  3. The Reintegration to Normal Living Index

    The Reintegration to Normal Living Index is a questionnaire used to assess the extent to which individuals have reintegrated into normal life following a stroke. It includes various domains, including social aspects of reintegration. The total score range for the scale is from 0 to 100, and a higher score indicates better reintegration into normal living. Therefore, in the case of the scale, a higher score is considered more favorable as it reflects a greater degree of reintegration into normal life following a stroke.

    Measured: day 1 and day 15
