  • Tube Feeding Using the Bolus Method | Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
    PATIENT & CAREGIVER EDUCATION Tube Feeding Using the Bolus Method This information will help teach you how to use the bolus method to feed yourself and take your medications through your percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG), gastrostomy tube (GT), or nasogastric tube (NGT). About Tube Feeding Tube feeding is when you get your nutrients through a feeding tube if you aren’t able to get enough through eating and drinking, or if you can’t swallow safely. Nutrients provide energy and help you heal. The bolus method is a type of feeding where a syringe is used to send formula through your feeding tube. The syringe you’ll use is called a catheter syringe. A catheter syringe doesn’t have a needle. It has a hole with a plunger in it. You draw up formula through the hole in the syringe then push the formula into your feeding tube with the plunger. A bolus refers to 1 “meal” of formula. You may have a feeding tube with a legacy connector or an ENFit connector. In this resource, we’ll show images of both types of connectors. For more information about your feeding tube, including how to manage side effects, read Tube Feeding Troubleshooting Guide. Tube Feeding Using the Bolus Method 1/11 Tube Feeding Guidelines Formula: __________ Total cans per day: ____________________ (8 ounces each) Calories per day: __________ You can choose the times of your feedings, as long as you reach your daily nutritional goals. Write in the times you prefer or your doctor, advanced practice provider (APP), or clinical dietitian nutritionist recommends.

  • The Paste Treatment of Inflammatory Skin Diseases, Especially of Eczema
    280 Progress of the Medical Sciences. [July The Paste Treatment of Inflammatory Skin Diseases, especially of Eczema. Dr. P. G. Unna, who has been largely instrumental in bringing into use the method of treating diseases of the skin by means of impermeable pastes, has recently given in the Monatshefte fur praktische Dermatologie, Nos. 2 and 3, 1884, a very complete list of the preparations used in his practice. Bolus Pastes (Bole Armeniac).—This is made of bolus alba (or clean kaolin) with vaseline and glycerine, in equal parts, or with olive, almond, or linseed oil, in the proportion of two to one, as B.—Boli alb®, parts 2 ; linseed oil, part 1.— M. The addition of more oil makes a liniment. In order to obtain a good paste for eczema it is necessary to add some liquor plumb, subacet. (or liquor alum, acet.) or oxide of zinc. jR.—Boli alba.', 5 parts; linseed oil, 3 parts; liquor plumb, acet., 2 parts.—M. This proportion is easily handled. It should be remembered that the bolus and oil are always to be mixed first, before the lead or aluminium is added, since the bolus and alum make an insoluble mass. In¬ stead of 5 parts of bolus, we may use 3 parts, and 2 of zinc oxide, as R.—Boli alb®, linseed oil (or glycerine), aa 30 parts; oxide of zinc and liq. plumb, subacet. aa 20 parts.—M. Make a paste. This is an excellent application for eczema. Instead of bolus earth, kaolin may be used, and instead of the bolus alba, the flava or the rubra may be used on the hands and face.

Recent studies have shown that MPA also has anticancer activities. To explore new therapeutic options for oral precancerous/cancerous lesions, MPA was designed to release topically on the dorsal tongue surface via a mucoadhesive patch. The objective of this study was to establish the pharmacokinetic (PK) and tongue tissue distribution of mucoadhesive MPA patch formulation after supralingual administration in rats and also compare the PK differences between oral, intravenous, and supralingual administration of MPA. Blood samples were collected Citation: Gao, X.; Wu, L.; Tsai, R.Y.L.; from Sprague Dawley rats before and after a single intravenous bolus injection, a single oral dose, Ma, J.; Liu, X.; Chow, D.S.-L.; Liang, or a mucoadhesive patch administration on the dorsal tongue surface for 4 h, all with a dose of D.; Xie, H.
