[Constant rate enteral feeding in the patient's home. Clinical experience in paediatrics (111 children) (author's transl)]. 1980

J Navarro, and J M Goutet, and J L Charritat

Constant rate enteral feeding in the patient's home considerably shortens the stay of children in a specialized pediatric unit. A study of 111 children treated by this method for the past 5 years shows that, provided close co-operation with the family is obtained, obvious psychological benefits can be expected with little risk of technical complications. From an economic point of view, the method provides an effective means of reducing costs.
