I USE of HOMEMADE BLENDERIZED FORMULA in GASTROSTOMY TUBE DEPENDENT PEDIATRIC PATIENTS with FEEDING INTOLERANCE USE OF HOMEMADE BLENDERIZED FORMULA IN GASTROSTOMY TUBE DEPENDENT PEDIATRIC PATIENTS WITH FEEDING INTOLERANCE: A RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ashley Lynn Bronston, B.S. Graduate Program in Allied Medical Professions The Ohio State University 2016 Master’s Examination Committee: Dr. Marcia Nahikian-Nelms, Advisor Dr. Wendelin Burdo-Hartman Dr. Colleen Spees Dr. Jill Clutter i Copyright by Ashley Lynn Bronston, B.S. 2016 ii Abstract BACKGROUND: The use of blenderized foods for tube feedings is becoming more popular in response to exploring alternative options to commercial formulas.1 Such formulations have been documented to improve gastrointestinal symptoms, including gagging and retching.2,3 However, research that demonstrates the safety and efficacy of homemade blenderized formulas (HBF) is limited with regard to nutritional adequacy, weight maintenance, quality of life and gastrointestinal (GI) symptom alleviation. METHODS: This study was a retrospective chart review. Patients were identified from a pilot study conducted in 2014-15. Data extracted for each patient included demographic characteristics, diagnoses, anthropometric measurements, an initial commercial formula prescription, a dietitian supervised transition plan, 5-day dietary histories of homemade blenderized recipes, scores from the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory questionnaires (Gastrointestinal Symptoms Module), and notes derived from the caregiver interviews. Nutritional adequacy was assessed using the Nutrition Data System for Research (NDSR) to assess formula volume, energy, macronutrients, and micronutrients.4 The nutritional adequacy of each HBF recipe was evaluated by comparing HBF delivery of energy and 27 key nutrients (including fiber) to the participant’s dietary recommendations, based on age and gender. Weight was monitored and compared throughout study visits using the ii Cerebral Palsy Gross Motor Function Classification System (CP GMFCS) Level 5-Tube Fed Growth Charts. The presence or absence of gastrointestinal symptoms was documented at each outpatient visit. Finally, health related quality of life was evaluated using the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PEDsQL) – Gastrointestinal Symptoms Module. INCLUSION CRITERIA: Four youth, between the ages of 2 and 18 years, diagnosed with a neurodevelopmental disability, were on enteral feeding via gastrostomy tube > 3 months, and identified with persistent GI symptoms. RESULTS: Subjects presented with a mean of 3.5 GI symptoms. All subjects reported some degree of symptom alleviation during the intervention and post intervention, 75% of GI symptoms were resolved. The mean weight loss was 2.53 pounds + 4.14. On average, caregivers answered only 5 of the 14 domains on the PEDsQL due to the subjective nature of some questions. HBF was superior in the provision of nutrients for Subjects 1 and 2. In Subject 3, commercial formula was identified as the more nutritionally adequate formula, but only by two nutrients. The commercial formula and HBF in subject 4 was nutritionally comparable, with both delivering 20 nutrients according to their clinical recommendations. CONCLUSIONS: HBF alleviated most GI symptoms for the subjects in this study, especially symptoms related to diarrhea, retching and vomiting. Weight and nutrient intake must be closely monitored for potential variability. Inferences cannot be drawn from the PEDsQL for quality of life due to the high percentage of incomplete questions iii by caregivers. Homemade blenderized formula may be nutritionally comparable to commercial formula prescriptions, but require close monitoring and intervention by a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN). iv Acknowledgments To my hard working mentor, Dr. Marcia Nahikian-Nelms: You inspire me day in and day out with your tireless efforts, clinical expertise, kind demeanor, and priceless knowledge. I will be forever grateful that our lives crossed paths. A big thanks to my Nationwide Children’s Hospital cheerleaders: Carol Williams and Wendelin Burdo- Hartman. Both of you have guided me through this experience and have kept me on track. Thank you for supporting me! Also, thank you Dr. Jill Clutter and Dr. Colleen Spees for being a part of this team. To my family, thank you for repeatedly reassuring me that I would graduate on those late night phone calls. This was a hard road, but I would not have done it without your love and support. To my high school friends: you have given me the support I needed, in order to become who I am today. To my Mansfield Field Hockey girls: our years together went by way too quickly. I will never forget the love I felt when we were all crowded in my living room to find out into which program I was accepted. MUFH will always have a piece of my heart. Finally, this experience would not have been the same without my beloved Med Diet family. In two years, most of us went from strangers to best friends. You are what I love most about Columbus. The memories we created here will never be forgotten. I love you all! v Vita May 16, 1992 ................................................

  • Acid Reflux Home Remedy Signs and Symptoms of Acid Reflux and Heartburn
    Acid Reflux Home Remedy Signs and Symptoms of Acid Reflux and Heartburn Heartburn is a condition in which the liquid content of the stomach backs up (refluxes) into the esophagus. The most common and persistent symptom of Heartburn is a burning sensation centered in the middle of the chest and/or throat, brought on by stomach acid that churns up onto the lining of the esophagus. Acid Reflux, also known as Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), is a condition which has many symptoms that are similar to heartburn. In many cases, people suffering from Acid Reflux typically suffer from persistent heartburn two or more days per week. In the long term, this can be very serious since, over time, the reflux of stomach acid can erode or wear away the delicate esophagus lining. This can then lead to scar tissue, which causes swallowing problems. GERD has also been linked to an increased risk of esophageal cancer. However, some people have Acid Reflux without heartburn. In such cases, symptoms include chest pain, wheezing, coarseness in the throat, breathing problems, a bitter taste in the mouth, dry coughing, interrupted sleep, tightness in the throat, and halitosis or bad breath. Acid reflux can also lead to regurgitation of acid into the mouth, often due to overeating or bending down or going to bed right after a meal. Causes of Acid Reflux Just like other health conditions, there is not one specific cause of Acid Reflux and Heartburn. However, a malfunction of a band of muscle tissue called the Lower Esophageal Sphincter (LES) can ultimately lead to many of the problems and symptoms associated with Acid Reflux and Heartburn.

It tells the story of the rise and fall of Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a mild-mannered chemistry teacher turned meth kingpin. He turns to a life of crime after having been diagnosed with terminal cancer, and he sees meth manufacturing as the most lucrative way to provide for his family. It has been nearly a decade since the series finale, yet it endures through sequel films, spin-offs, and online streaming. My thesis investigates the series’ staying power, and I would argue that lies in its thematic content. Breaking Bad is not just a straightforward story of one man’s descent into a life of crime, but it is also a mediation on dominant, repressive power structures. The series offers a look at these structures through the lens of race, gender, and disability through the actions of characters and their interactions with one another.

  • Breaking Bad: Breaking Television’S Limited Representations Of
    BREAKING BAD: BREAKING TELEVISION’S LIMITED REPRESENTATIONS OF ADDICTION A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Michael Allan Jones In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Major Program: Speech Communication August 2014 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title Breaking Bad: Breaking Television’s Limited Representations of Addiction By Michael Allan Jones The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Dr. Robert Littlefield Chair Dr. Mark Meister Dr. Zoltan Majdik Dr. Andrew Mara Approved: 9-25-2014 Dr. Mark Meister Date Department Chair ABSTRACT As a communication device, television helps cultivate a culture’s social reality. Yet, television sometimes advances flawed concepts in a social reality, particularly concerning addiction. Television appears to have cultivated limiting stereotypical concepts regarding the attitudes, thoughts, and action patterns characteristic of addicts. These stereotypes may hinder a person’s recovery. This analysis, therefore, examines narratives in AMC’s Breaking Bad to learn how the television series conceptualizes addiction. Combing Walter Fisher’s Narrative Paradigm with William Kirkwood’s Rhetoric of Possibility, it delineates an alternative narrative representation of addiction. It reveals limitations in stereotypically conceived representations of addiction, and shows coherent narratives supporting a more comprehensive concept of the term. Through the Fisher-Kirkwood lens, Breaking Bad may be seen as cultivating an enlightened conceptualization of addiction. In so doing, the television show’s cultural importance is established.

  • Syllabus -- Spoiler-Free! Messiah College
    The Wages of Sin is Death: Breaking Bad as the New American Tragedy Course Syllabus -- Spoiler-Free! Messiah College. Fall 2015. Tuesdays, 6:15-9:15 p.m. Boyer 131. Instructor: James B. LaGrand Email: [email protected] Office: Boyer 264 Office hours: Mondays, Wednesdays, & Fridays, 11-noon; Telephone: ext. 7381 Thursdays, 3-4 p.m.; & by appointment Course description A number of serialized TV dramas over the past decade or so have led many critics to call this period “the golden age of television.” No show better epitomizes this label than Breaking Bad. Its thrilling plots and cliff-hangers have won it millions of viewers. But it’s more than a pop culture phenomenon. Creator Vince Gilligan’s show stands out for its novelistic structure and sensitive examination of characters’ inner lives. Even more remarkable for a television program, Breaking Bad provides a relentlessly honest picture of the human condition--both its vices and virtues. The show’s depictions of the seven “deadly sins” or “capital vices”-- especially pride, envy, greed, and wrath--have led many viewers to recall Greek and Shakespearean tragedies. Acclaimed not only by the public but also by television and literature critics, Breaking Bad is uniquely well-suited among television shows for study and reflection in a classroom context. In this course, you will take in course content (i.e. episodes of Breaking Bad) outside of the classroom--what’s sometimes called a “flipped classroom.” Thus, class sessions can be reserved for discussion and assimilation of this show’s many timely and important themes--including human depravity and morality, drugs, drug policy, marriage, family, friendship, masculinity, gender relations, work, vocation, money, and race.

This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public.

In prior research, the protagonist Walter White has been analyzed as a man who wants to escape his responsibilities and the disappointments of his family life. However, in this thesis he will be shown to be simultaneously an advocate for the ideal- ized family as well as for the idealized role of a man. The crisis of the masculinity therefore originates in the incoherency of the new idealized role of father and the ideal- ized role of the man. Following the introduction and the research overview, the first chapter of this thesis is about the family in Breaking Bad.
