| Summary: | Objective: To study the effects of bifidobacterium-containing enteral nutrition intervention
on the nutritional status and intestinal flora disturbance in patients with the severe cerebral
infarction. Methods: 88 patients with severe cerebral infarction who were treated in Deyang
Second People’s Hospital between March 2014 and October 2016 were collected and divided
into control group and observation group according to the random number table, control
group received routine enteral nutrition intervention, and the observation group received
bifidobacterium-containing enteral nutrition intervention. The nutritional status, intestinal
mucosa function and intestinal flora distribution before and after nutritional intervention
were compared between the two groups of patients. Results: Before intervention, differences
in the nutritional status, intestinal mucosa function and intestinal flora distribution were not
statistically significant between two groups of patients. After intervention, peripheral blood
levels of nutritional status indexes Hb, TP, ALB, PA and TF in observation group were higher
than those in control group; serum levels of intestinal mucosal barrier function indexes
DAO and D-lactate were lower than those in control group; the number of bifidobacterium
and lactobacillus in feces were larger than those in control group while the number of
enterobacteria and enterococcus were smaller than those in control group. Conclusion:
Bifidobacterium-containing enteral nutrition intervention can enhance the nutritional status,
optimize the intestinal mucosa function and reduce the intestinal flora disturbance in patients
with severe cerebral infarction. |
