About this study

Official title: Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube on Feeding Hesitancy in Stroke Patients: A Randomized Controlled Study

The aim of this clinical trial is to compare Feeding Hesitancy 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 Feeding Hesitancy of the two groups.

Read the detailed description

The study will last 15 days for each participant.

What participants receive

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

  • Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube FeedingDevice

    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.

  • Nasogastric Tube FeedingDevice

    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.

Study groups in NCT06312371
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube FeedingExperimentalThe group was given enteral nutritional support with Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube according to the following procedure. The feeding content was formulated by the nutritionists based on the 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
Receives: Device: Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding
Nasogastric Tube FeedingActive comparatorthe group was given enteral nutritional support with Nasogastric Tube 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 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.
Receives: Device: Nasogastric Tube Feeding

What is being measured

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

  1. Swallowing Quality of Life questionnaire

    Swallowing Quality of Life questionnaire was used to evaluate the quality of life, which consists of 44 items and divided into 11 main domains, including: overall satisfaction, understanding, diet, hydration, communication, respiratory issues, postoperative recovery, social impact, mental health, saliva control, and appearance. The maximum rough score was 220 points, which was converted into a standard percentage system in our study. As the scores increased, the quality of life was better.

    Measured: day 1 and day 15
