dietary management of patients with stroke presenting results of also symptoms of dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) must maintain adequate nutrition by preventing the passage of solid food and / or liquids into the airways. The
nutrition by mouth is obviously the first choice: the food themselves represent an essential factor for maintaining the functional integrity of all intestinal functions (hormonal, immune, barrier).
If the power only through the mouth is not sufficient to cover the nutritional needs of the patient, you can combine the use of food supplements on the market or artificial enteral nutrition. The enteral nutrition
(Feeding via nasogastric tube or gastrostomy is an artificial feeding system that respects the physiology of the intestine, with low risks and complications.
enteral nutrition is used when the patient is unable to eat enough by mouth (partial dysphagia), or when the total is dysphagia (dysphagia acute) to a coma or chronic dysphagia in the case of irreversible injury of the centers that control swallowing.
The choice of route for enteral nutrition depends primarily by:
• the underlying disease and the patient's general condition was
• Morphology and functional digestive
• expected duration of treatment
• •
technical risks associated with the acceptability of the patient.
