ObjectiveTo summarize the experiences of application and nursing measures of three-lumen gastrojejunal tube for enteral nutrition in postoperative patients with gastric carcinoma. MethodsWe analyzed the clinical data of 60 gastric cancer patients undergoing treatment with three-lumen gastrojejunal tube after surgery between June and September 2012. And then we summarized the nursing experiences including fixation and flushing of the tube, plugging disposal, management of the nutrition temperature, and infusion speed choice. ResultsPostoperative nutritional status of all the 60 patients were improved. Their plasma albumin level reached (34.58±5.29) g/L, plasma hemoglobin reached the level of (113.90±19.12) g/L, and score of nutrition risk screening 2002 reached 3.47±0.71. Meanwhile, earlier recovery of enteric function made shorter average hospitalization. Decreasing use of parenteral nutrition avoided related complications. ConclusionApplication of the three-lumen gastrojejunal tube in postoperative patients with gastric carcinoma for enteral nutrition can improve their nutritional status and promote their recovery at an early time.
