Answer to #1

Enteral nutrition includes feedings that bring the nutrients directly into the digestive system. These alternate methods include the following:
Nasogastric-a tube through the nose into the stomach or small intestine

Gastrostomy-creation of a surgical opening into the stomach

Jejunostomy-creation of a surgical opening into the jejunum



Answer to #2

A

Answer to #3

FALSE

Answer to #4

After gastric surgery, the dumping syndrome may develop. Within 15-30 minutes after eating, dizziness, weakness, cramps, vomiting, or diarrhea may occur because the food moves too quickly from the stomach into the small intestine.

Answer to #5

D

Answer to #6

FALSE

Answer to #7

The B vitamins are needed for the increased metabolism, vitamins A and C are for wound healing, and zinc is needed for wound healing. Vitamin D is for the absorption of calcium and vitamin K for proper blood clotting. Iron is for blood building, calcium and phosphorus to support bone health, and other minerals for maintenance of acid-base balance and electrolyte and fluid balance.
