We aimed to measure the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of children with neurological impairment (NI) on home enteral nutrition (HEN). An original survey among the caregivers of NI children on HEN for ≥ 12 months followed in three Italian centers (Messina, Como and Varese) was carried out between January 2013 and September 2018. The questionnaire was made up of 12 issues focused on the frequency with which certain situations associated with HEN are perceived, and grouped into physical and psychological/social dimensions. The results were analyzed statistically according to the age of the children, underlying disease, and the HEN programs’ duration. In total, 80 caregivers were approached, and 75 surveys were completed (an overall response rate of 93.7%). Nearly all the caregivers reported a satisfying HRQoL, ranging from acceptable (n = 6, 8%), to good (n = 22, 29.3%), to excellent (n = 47, 62.7%). A significant correlation was found between HRQoL and underlying NI-associated disease (p = 0.001). Our data showed that HEN positively affects the QoL of NI children and their caregivers. This should encourage healthcare providers to consider this nutritional intervention early in the approach to this group of patients, in order to prevent or reduce QoL impairment.

Home enteral nutrition (HEN) is an important part of the health care system, with a growing population of patients around the world. The aim of our study was to analyze one of the largest cohorts of HEN patients to provide the most recent data available in European literature. A multicenter, nation-wide survey in the period of 1 January 2018–1 January 2019 was performed in Poland. Data concerning adult patients on HEN in 2018 during 1 year of observation time were analyzed: demographic characteristics, primary disease, technique of enteral feeding, diet formulation and amount of energy provided. A total of 4586 HEN patients (F: 46.7%, M: 53.3%) were included in the study. The primary diseases were: 54.5% neurological (17.4%—neurovascular, 13.7%—neurodegenerative), 33.9% cancer (20.2%—head and neck, 11.7%—gastrointestinal cancer), 2.5%—gastroenterology, 1.5%—inherited diseases. Of new registrations in 2018—cancer patients 46.3%, neurological patients 45.1%. The median age overall was: 64 yr., BMI-20.2 kg/m2, NRS 2002 score—4.28. A total of 65% of patients were treated with PEG, 11.6% with surgical gastrostomy, 14.3% with naso-gastric tube and 7% with jejunostomy. Boluses were the most common method of feeding (74.4%). Gravity flow was used in 17.6% and peristaltic pump was used in 8% patients. The median energy provision was 1278 kcal/day and 24 kcal/kg/day. The most commonly used diets were: isocaloric (28.1%), protein-enriched isocaloric (20%) and protein-enriched hypercaloric (12%). The median overall duration of HEN was 354 days, 615 days for neurological and 209 days for cancer patients. A number of new registrations of cancer patients was significant and long duration of HEN in this group is encouraging. A developing spectrum of enteral formulas available enables more specified nutritional interventions.
