The effect of the early enteral nutrition on nutritional status in dysphagy patients with from acute stroke

Objective: To investigate the effects of early enteral nutrition on acute cerebral stroke patients with dysphagia.Methods: 62 patients were randomly divided into two groups.The study group(n=31)was treated with enteral nutritional emulsion of Fresubin,while the control group(n=31)was treated with homogenate suspension of nutrients mixture for 30 days.The clinical parameters related to nutrient and immune situation and the adverse reactions were recorded and compared between two groups.Results: BMI,skinfold thickness,and arm muscle circumference in study group were significantly different from the control group(P0.05).The hemoglobin,serum albumin,prealbumin,and total lymphocyte count had a statistical difference(P0.05) between groups.The adverse reactions were less observed in the enteral nutrition group.Conclusion: Early enteral nutrition support can improve the nutritional status with less adverse reactions in acute cerebral stroke patients with dysphagia.
