Evolution of Enteral Nutrition(1)
!
!
Ancient Egyp2an Times Enemas of wine, milk, broth etc. 16th and 17th Century Nasal and oral gastric tubes used !
1940’s & 1950’s Feeding pumps & commercially prepared formulas 1980’s -­‐ Present Medical nutri2on therapy prac2ce evolves Evolution of Enteral Formulas(1,2,3)
•  Prior to 1940’s: Milk, broth, eggs, meat, wine/whiskey etc.!
•  1940’s & 1950’s: Modified macronutrients and
micronutrients added and commercial formulas
introduced!
•  1960’s &1970’s: Commercial formulas improve and start
to become standard practice!
•  Present: !
–  > 100 commercial formulas, often believed to be clinically
superior(4)!
–  Renewed interest in homemade formulas!
!
2 16-­‐05-­‐22 Renewed Interest in HBTF
•  Nutritional sciences continue to develop!
•  Increase in health information on the internet!
–  Patient networking on social media!
Dietitians Perspectives on HBTF
Dietitians of Canada Pediatric and Nutrition Support Network
survey on experience and knowledge related to HBTF (2013)*!
-  88 respondents!
-  14 % of respondents felt comfortable using HBTF!
-  Additional education and tools were requested to increase
practitioner confidence with this practice area!
!
* Unpublished. Available through DC Pediatric and Nutrition Support Network Chairs.!
Dietitians Perspectives on HBTF
Survey Study Assessing Attitudes and Experiences of
Pediatric Registered Dietitians Regarding Blended Food
By Gastrostomy Tube Feeding (2015)(5)!
–  Survey to American Academy of Nutrition and
Dietetics – Pediatric Practice Group !
–  Younger RDs more interested in providing HBTF
compared to older RDs!
–  Older RDs were more familiar with HBTF but less
likely to use!
3 16-­‐05-­‐22 Evidence Based Nutrition
“The conscientious, explicit, and
judicious use of current best evidence,
primarily from clinical trials, in making
decisions about the care of individual
patients.” – British Medical Journal(6)!
Patient Centered Care
“ Providing care that is respectful of
and responsive to individual patient
preferences, needs, and values and
ensuring that patient values guide all
clinical decisions.” – Institute of
Medicine(7) !
Case Story: Patient History

guidelines 6 years ago)!
–  HBTF recipe created!
•  Parents educated RD on blending techniques and
practicalities of feeding!
5 16-­‐05-­‐22 Case Story: Patient Outcomes
•  Improved nutritional status!!

Practical Tips for RD’s: Overview
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
Determining appropriate candidates!
Equipment and supplies needed!
Planning a HBTF “recipe”!
Preparing, blenderizing and storing HBTF!
Administration of a HBTF!
Hospitalized patients requesting HBTF!
Emergency planning!
Resources for families (and professionals)!
Appropriate HBTF Candidates
•  Based on limited available research guidelines and
clinical experiences!
•  Algorithm or decision-support tool to help clinicians and
patients understand criteria to support a successful
transition to HBTF!
•  Some patients may still choose to use HBTF despite
clinical readiness!
–  Communicate and document risks!
9 16-­‐05-­‐22 Appropriate HBTF Candidates(15)
HBTF Candidates Ra/onale Pa2ent is medically stable •  Medically unstable pa2ents oPen required commercial formula for beRer control of fluid and nutrient administra2on. •  Medically unstable pa2ents are oPen immunocompromised and HBTF have a higher risk of contamina2on. Pa2ent is > 6 months of age •  Health Canada, the Canadian Pediatric Society and Die22ans of Canada do not endorse the use of homemade infants formula (due to risk of inadequate nutri2on and contamina2on). Appropriate HBTF Candidates(15)
HBTF Candidates Ra/onale Medical Nutri2on Therapy needs can be met by HBTF •  In some cases, specialized enteral formulas cannot be replicated by HBTF. For example, formulas used for the management of metabolic or gastrointes2nal condi2ons. Pa2ent is gastrostomy fed •  Jejunostomy feeding requires con2nuous or intermiRent feeding which can be logis2cally challenging when HBTF cannot be leP at room temperature for > 2hours. •  Hypertonic formulas can increase dumping and the osmolarity of HBTF can be difficult to calculate. •  Smaller feeding tube diameter may become blocked. Appropriate HBTF Candidates(15)
HBTF Candidates Ra/onale Pa2ent tolerates bolus feeding •  Avoiding con2nuous feeds can reduce the risk of food borne illness. •  Feeds can be administered by syringe rather than feeding pump. The tube size is ≥ 12 French •  Small tube sizes can become occluded easily. Pa2ent and/or the care providers have the equipment and training to transi2on to HBTF •  HBTF prepara2on can require extra 2me, equipment and cost. •  Pa2ents benefit from educa2on on nutri2on and food safety prior to star2ng. 10 16-­‐05-­‐22 Equipment and Supplies
•  Kitchen space, refrigerator, measuring cups, sink, tube
feeding supplies!
•  Equipment to blend:!
–  Commercial grade blender!
•  Blendtec: 1-800-253-6383!
•  Vita-mix: 1-800-VITAMIX!
–  Or: regular blender and a strainer or fine sieve!
–  Or: commercial strained infant foods!

The HBTF “Recipe”
One set HBTF formula recipe A HBTF recipe template Pros •  Consistent daily nutrient •  Increased nutrient variety intake •  Increased flexibility with planning •  Some families may find it HBTF blends easier to follow and plan for Cons •  Can lack nutrient variety •  Variability in nutrient and calorie •  May not match family meals concentra2on of blends which requires the prepara2on of different foods Planning a HBTF(15)
1.  Determine nutritional needs and patient goals!
2.  Prepare a recipe template:!
•  Canada’s Food Guide!
•  Homemade Blended Formula Worksheets!
3.  Create sample recipes using the recipe template!
4.  Complete a nutrient analysis of several recipe blends. And
assess factors such as: !
•  Macronutrient distribution!
•  Micronutrients !
•  Free water!
11 16-­‐05-­‐22 Planning a HBTF – Example(15)
Grains: ½ cup cooked quinoa, ½ cup cooked brown rice, 1 slice of
whole wheat bread!
Vegetables and Fruit: ½ cup carrots, ½ cup broccoli, ½ cup banana,
½ cup plums!
Milk/Alternatives: 2 cups milk!
Meat/Alternatives: 1/4 cup chickpeas, 1 ounce roast beef!
Fat: 1 Tbsp Canola oil!
Other: 1 Tbsp cooking molasses 1/3 tsp table salt !
!
Provides: 1050 kcal/day (15 % protein, 53 % carbohydrate, 32 % fat)!
!
Preparing HBTF(18,17,18)
•  Proper hand washing !
•  Wash and sanitize cooking surfaces prior to use!
•  Wash all fruits and vegetables. Use cooked fruits and
vegetables for people with weakened immune systems!
•  Cook meat, fish, eggs and poultry to appropriate
temperatures!
•  Cool heated food within 2 hours!
Blenderizing HBTF
•  Follow recipe guidelines!
•  Blend to a liquid consistency (at least 2-3 minutes)!
•  Use a strainer or sieve when lumps or seeds remain in
formula after blending!
!
12 16-­‐05-­‐22 Storing HBTF(17)
•  Store formula in a refrigerator (<4° C, 40° F) for up to 48
hours!
•  Store formula in a freezer (-18° C, 0° F) for up to 1 month!
•  Label:!
–  Date of preparation!
–  Ingredients!
–  Date of expiration!
Administering HBTF
•  Syringe Feeding!
–  Large syringes (60 ml) fastest!
–  Smaller syringes (20 or 35 ml) for thicker blends!
•  Feeding pumps!
–  Made for commercial formula!
–  Lumps can set off the alarm!
•  Avoid having HBTF formula at room temperature for > 2
hours!
