Infectious complications Infection at the tube insertion site
Aspiration pneumonia
Nasopharyngeal and ear infections

Which intervention should the nurse take for a client who is receiving continuous tube feeding?

Which intervention should the nurse take for a client who is receiving continuous tube feedings? Elevate the head of the bed at least 30 to 45 degrees to prevent aspiration. An elevation of at least 30 to 45 degrees or higher in a client receiving tube feedings will prevent reflux and prevent aspiration.

Which nursing action is performed according to guidelines for aspirating fluid from a small bore feeding tube?

Which nursing action is performed according to guidelines for aspirating fluid from a small-bore feeding tube? If fluid is obtained when aspirating, measure its volume and pH and flush the tube with water.

What are the 3 main feeding methods?

Feeding Methods.
Enteral. The term, enteral, refers to nutrition administered via the gastrointestinal tract. ... .
Oral. ... .
Tube Feeding. ... .
Parenteral..

For which of the following clients should the nurse anticipate the need for a pureed diet?

For which of the following clients should the nurse anticipate the need for a pureed diet? Pureed diets are indicated for clients who have significant problems chewing and/or swallowing. Surgery and confusion are not indications for this change in the texture and consistency of food.
