Major risk factors: tobacco and alcohol abuse.

Other risk factors
Being infected with human papillomavirus (HPV)-especially
HPV-16.
Chewing betel quid and drinking mate.
Age, gender, poor nutrition, weakened immune system, and
genes.
Oropharyngeal Cancer Complications

Airway obstruction

Dysphagia

Disfigurement of the neck or face

Hardening of the skin of the neck

Loss of voice and speaking ability
The Major Nutrition Related Problem

Stages of Oropharyngeal Cancer
The TNM Staging System
T: The size of primary tumor and which
T0, T1, T2, T3, T4a, T4b
tissues in oropharynx it has spread to

Subjective/Objective
• Pt was vented, without propofol
• Abdomen soft, non-tender, nondistended, bowel sounds positive
• Surgical wounds at the left side of
his neck
• Jevity 1.5 at rate 30 ml/hr (MD
order)
Admission 2- Estimated Needs (01/18/2013)
Estimated Needs: ~1482 kcal (23 kcal/kg)
• Penn State equation for critically ill, vented, non-obese
patients (Ht: 178cm, Wt: 64.4 kg, age 59 y, ventilation in liter
per minute 4L/min, the maximum temperature during the
previous 24 hours 36.9 degrees Celsius)
RMR=Mifflin (0.96)+ventilation per minute (4)x31+Tmax
(36.9)x167-6212=1482 kcal
Estimated protein range 1.3-1.5 g/kg
• Estimated protein needs: 84-97 g
Fluid need is per MD order in ICU
Admission 2-Nutrition Diagnosis (01/18/2013)
PES statement
• Inadequate TF intake r/t infusion volume not reached AEB TF
intake (1080 kcal/day)< estimated energy needs (1482
kcal/day)
Admission 2-Nutrition Goal, Intervention, M/E
Nutrition Goal
• Pt will have adequate nutrition via TF during hospital stay
Intervention
• Rec to change TF w/ Jevity 1.5, goal rate 35 ml/hr x 24 hrs,
Prostat 1 pkt TID via PEG, fluid per MD, providing 1476 kcal
(1260 kcal from Jevity 1.5, 216 kcal from Prostat), 99 g protein
(54g from Jevity 1.5, 45g from Prostat). Fluid is per MD.
Monitoring and Evaluation
• TF rate change, TF tolerance, wt change
Admission 2-Reassessment (01/21/2013)
• EA was agitated and fought against ventilation during the
weekend.
• Intubated and sedated w/ propofol at 23.3 ml/hr.
• Per RN, pt tolerated TF well with 80ml residual in 12 hr shift.
Nutrition Reassessment (01/21/2013)
Energy needs: ~1516 kcal (23.5 kcal/kg)
• Penn State: RMR=Mifflin (0.96)+ventilation per minute
(4)x31+Tmax (37.1)x167-6212=1516 kcal.
• Since propofol was running at 23.3 ml/hr, the calories from
propofol (23.3x24x1.1=615 kcal) needed to be subtracted.
Calories from TF should be 901 kcal.
Estimated protein needs range: 1.3-1.5 g/kg
• Estimated protein needs: 84-97g
Fluid is per MD
Admission 2-Nutrition Diagnosis (01/21/2013)
PES
• Excessive intake from enteral nutrition r/t propofol use at
23.3 ml/hr AEB tube feeding, prostat, and propofol provide
2091 kcal while patient needs 1516 kcal.
Admission 2-Intervention & M/E
Intervention
• Rec to change TF w/ Jevity 1.5, goal rate 20 ml/hr x 18 hrs,
Prostat 5 pkt via PEG, fluid per MD, providing 1515 kcal (540
kcal from Jevity 1.5, 360 kcal from Prostat, and 615 kcal from
propofol), 98 g protein (23g from Jevity 1.5, 75g from Prostat).
Monitoring and Evaluation
• TF rate change
• TF tolerance
• Propofol rate change
The story continues ...
• 01/25: Pt was extubated, rec to change TF back to Jevity 1.5
at 60 ml/hrx24 hrs, d/c prostat.
• 01/30: Carotid blowout due to tumor encasing a carotid
artery.
• Plan to d/c to hospice
Nutrition and Wound Care
• 3 significant wounds
• Unhealed surgical incisions since radical neck dissection
surgery in August, 2012.
• Wounds deteriorated since radiation therapy
Antioxidants and Radiation Therapy
• Radiation therapy is used to eradicate cancer and as a
palliative measure to relieve pain associated by increasing
DNA damage in tumor cells.
• Antioxidants protect normal cells by reducing the oxidative
modification of DNA, while providing same benefits for cancer
cells.
• High-dose antioxidant supplementation: decreasing local
tumor control and shortening the survival of ca pts.
• Only topical wound care was provided for EA.
Nutrition Role
Nutrition intervention benefits EA by:

Improving kcal and protein intake

Maintaining anthropometric measurements

Improving the quality of life
