Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze factors that influence the length of stay (LOS) and mortality rates in patients who were fed using nasogastric or nasoenteric tubes at multiple hospitals in Brazil.
- Data was collected from 365 patients between October 2017 and April 2019, focusing on various demographic and clinical factors to assess correlations with LOS and death.
- Key findings showed that older age, nursing care dependency, and complexity of care increased both LOS and risk of death, underlining the importance of identifying these factors for better nursing care planning.
