Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Registered dietitians (RDs) may be responsible for insertion of nasogastric or nasointestinal feeding tubes for adults in some institutions. A recent review of this practice found a 66 reduction of hospital costs associated with tube insertion along with a shorter time for insertion and a shorter time for feeding initiation in institutions where the RD is responsible for bedside placement of postpyloric feeding tubes. Box 5.3 summarizes the protocol for the insertion of tubes in adults. (See the Equipment section later in the chapter for more information about the tubes and other supplies involved.)
