Objectives By the end of this session, participants will be
able to:
• Assess energy, protein and fluid requirements for
a paediatric tube-fed patient
• Understand calculating requirements of a tube-fed
child with a disability
• Troubleshoot problems with tube feeding in a
paediatric patient

Case study – Jack 7yo Measuring height / knee height
• Length if no contractures
• Upper arm length - anthropometer
• Tibial length (lower leg length) – tape measure
Formula for estimating stature (S) birth to 12 years (Stevenson 1995)
Knee height S = (2.69 x KH) + 24.2
Formula for estimating stature (S) from knee height (Chumlea 1994)
Boys
6 - 18 years S = (2.22 x KH) + 40.54
Girls

Case study – Jack 7yo
Height = 115cm (~10th %ile) estimated from KH
Triceps skinfold = 3.5 mm (< 5th centile)
• W-H <10th centile (and BMI) failed to identify 45% of children with
severely depleted fat stores
• Triceps skinfold thickness <10th centile identified 96% of malnourished children
• “Use of triceps skinfold thickness, using a cut-off value of <10th centile for age and sex, is recommended to screen for suboptimal fat stores in children with CP”

• A gastrostomy tube was advised
• John’s parents agreed
• Discussion with surgeon and

a fundoplication was also required due
to history of vomiting and recurrent
chest infections

The gastric fundus (upper part) of the stomach is wrapped around the
lower end of the oesophagus and stitched in place, reinforcing the
closing function of the lower oesophageal sphincter

• ?Higher risk of tube blockage
• ?Can shorten the life of the tube
• More difficult to assess adequacy

Micronutrients
Children with low energy needs receive
low volumes of formula and therefore may
not meet their micronutrient requirements

• Micronutrients low for
Mg (72%) Ca (51%)
Phos (34%) Se (60%)
Iodine (54%) K (29%)
• Add either “Paediatric seravit” (Nutricia) or “Fruiti vits” (VitaFlo)
Both available on script
• However, protein and K still low

2.Starting a new feeding regimen Methods of feeding
• Oral + Bolus top-up
• Bolus only
• Bolus + continuous
• Continuous overnight only
• Continuous daytime only
![Page 42: Welcome to Allied Health Telehealth...Welcome to Allied Health Telehealth To receive an attendance certificate please complete your online evaluation at: ... –Mx –Other conditions](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040918/5e70dcd36823a048e3751b54/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Continuous Vs Bolus
• CONTINUOUS: • Advantages
– Well tolerated
– Assist in managing reflux
– Increased nutrient absorption
• Disadvantages
– Attached to equipment
– May interfere with absorption of medication
– Unable to supervise for the entire feed
– Increased risk of feed contamination (hang times)
![Page 43: Welcome to Allied Health Telehealth...Welcome to Allied Health Telehealth To receive an attendance certificate please complete your online evaluation at: ... –Mx –Other conditions](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040918/5e70dcd36823a048e3751b54/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Continuous Vs Bolus • BOLUS:
• Advantages
– Mimics normal feeding pattern
– Greater freedom/mobility
– Able to be supervised during the feed
– Supplement oral intake
• Disadvantages
– More time consuming for carer
– Highest risk of aspiration, reflux, diarrhoea

4. Practical considerations for HEN
The Basics:
Feeding equipment :
eg pumps, syringes, feed bags / tubes
Enteral formula:
is it easily accessible, affordable & practical?
Carers/Parents:
adequate education about enteral feeding and feel confidence to enterally feed child
Written enteral regime & recipe:
provided to parents/carers for reference and to respite / school
Ongoing Support:
Does the carer/parent have ongoing support from health care staff
Regular reviews:
assess growth/weight gain and tolerance
Positioning during/after feeds

Case study- Jack 7yo
Would you choose bolus or continuous
feeds for Jack?
Why would you choose this?

Case study- Jack 7yo
• Estimated Requirements:
– Goal Weight= current wt + 25%
– EER: Schofield BMR – x1.2
13kg = 795 – 955 cal/day
16kg = 875 – 1050 cal
– EPR: 13 (0.94g.kg)
– EFR: ~1000ml

Monitoring Tube Feeds Short term monitoring:
Tolerance - vomiting / diarrhoea
Constipation
Biochemistry
Longer term monitoring: Vitamins / minerals / trace elements
Growth – weight, height, skin-folds
Medical progress – oral intake
Regular follow-up – 6 monthly
Transition to oral feeding

– General assessment
• Anthro: looking for weight gain, increase fat stores
• Clinical: general health, bowels, urine
• Dietary: What has happened at home and school
with regards to eating, drinking and bolus feeds
– Adjust based on findings.
