If diarrhoea begins after tube feeding, what is the most appropriate review?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Feed type or concentration, volume, administration rate, and preparation hygiene
Diarrhoea after tube feeding requires a broad review of the formula type and concentration, delivered volume, rate, timing, preparation and storage hygiene, medications, infection, and the patient’s underlying condition. A concentrated or contaminated feed, excessive volume, or rapid administration may contribute. No single factor alone is a complete assessment.
